Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. § 794d)
The National Indian Gaming Commission is committed to making its electronic and information technologies (EITs) accessible to individuals with disabilities by meeting or exceeding the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. § 794d), as amended. Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires all EIT that is developed, procured, maintained, or used by a federal agency to be accessible to people with disabilities. Examples of EIT include websites, telephones, multimedia devices, and copiers. Access available to individuals with disabilities must be comparable to access available to others. Standards for Section 508 compliance are developed and maintained by the United States Access Board. Additional information about the Access Board’s standards, and Section 508 generally, may be found at www.section508.gov.
