Accessibility: Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act

SamCERA is committed to making its electronic and information technologies accessible to individuals with disabilities in conformance with the requirements of California Government Code Section 7405 and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (29 U.S.C. 794d), as amended, as well as the regulations implementing that act as set forth in Part 1194 of Title 36 of the Federal Code of Regulations.

Section 508 is a federal law that requires agencies to provide individuals with disabilities equal access to electronic information and data. Access by individuals with disabilities must be comparable to that provided to those who do not have disabilities, unless doing so would impose an undue burden on the agency. The Section 508 standards are the technical requirements and criteria that are used to measure legal conformance with equal accessibility. Our website designer, Digital Deployment, tested our site and confirms that our site complies with Section 508 standards and WCAG 2.2, Level AA success criteria and includes enhanced mobile optimization and compatibility with assistive technologies. (You may contact SamCERA for a copy of the notification.)
