Subject: Website Accessibility Testing

 

Hi all,

 

My name is Chelsea Sullivan, and I work with the Equal Rights Center in
Washington, DC. We are a civil rights organization that identifies and seeks
to eliminate unlawful and unfair discrimination in Greater Washington, DC
and throughout the United States. Our core strategy for identifying
discrimination is civil rights testing. Recently, we started testing
multifamily housing websites for their accessibility to the blind and low
vision population. We are looking to recruit and train more testers who use
assistive technology to help us with this work. Partnered with a sighted
control tester, both testers are asked to view the mobile and desktop
versions of the sites and compare their experiences. 

 

We are specifically looking for testers in Washington, DC and surrounding
areas. If you have any questions or you are interested in becoming a tester
for the ERC, please email me directly at csullivan at equalrightscenter.org

Thanks,

 

Chelsea Sullivan
