Hi Cheryl,

The GSK graphing tool:
https://research.csc.ncsu.edu/accessibility/GSK/index.html

may be useful in making flowcharts. It allows you to make labeled items and connect them with lines. The result is also accessible to those using screenreaders. You can move between connected items using the arrow keys.

Thanks,

Kevin

Thanks Kennedy. I just googled flowchart and that's what I'm looking
for. According to google, the microsoft programs have that capability
so I'll have to explore how accessible that might be.
