I'm not an expert on Workflow apps or Mind Mapping apps but I'd imagine
99 percent of them are visual and have very little functionality with
*any* screen-reader. Its just a very visual way to organize information,
I mean the only thing that might be more inaccessible is asking if a
graphic editor was accessible... That having been said, I'd ask pro's in
the field or some training center maybe even folks at inDATA Project out
of Indiana.  I'd think if there is such a tool its likely to be on iOS
or perhaps a Web App. But if its in the near term, he needs a solution
he might just have to use some other method of creating a workflow with
forks and branches... Maybe something like a spreadsheet... In isn't
perfect and he'd have to add lots of labeling but its the only thing
that comes to mind.

I'm starting my own research on the subject but wanted to see if anyone could recommend a tool for this or speak to the accessibility of Visio.
