Alternate or Accessible Formats

People with disabilities may use adaptive or assistive technology that requires a certain format so the technology can access the information in a specific manner for the user. Alternate accessible formats, such as printed or electronic documents must be available to ensure everyone has equal access to the information.

Examples of alternate or accessible formats include:

• large print
• electronic or digital documents which are formatted to be accessible for use with a screen reader
• braille
• writing in plain language
• text transcripts of visual and audio information, such as video transcript
• American Sign Language (ASL) and/or close captioned interpreted documents and videos
