Join Vispero in celebrating the 12th Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) on Thursday, May 18, 2023. Our sister company, The Paciello Group Interactive (TPGi), will host events in honor of digital accessibility.

What Is GAAD?

GAAD aims to create more awareness around digital accessibility, the use of inclusive design, and the impact of inaccessible digital products on people with disabilities. A more inclusive world helps a significant portion of the population communicate, be more successful, and live more fulfilling lives.

Why Is Digital Accessibility Essential?

Digital accessibility ensures websites and applications are accessible to users with disabilities. This enables all users to perform important tasks such as consuming news content, conducting research, and performing essential tasks at work and school.

Help Us Celebrate

Help us celebrate GAAD by attending these events hosted by TPGi.
