Accessing and Using our Accessibility Toolbar
Since DRWV believes in accessibility for all, we’ve added an accessibility and language toolbar called Recite Me to our website to make it accessible and inclusive for as many people as possible.
​
It helps one in four people in the US who have a disability, including those with common conditions like sight loss and dyslexia, access our website in the way that suits them best.
​
It also meets the needs of the 67.8 million people in the US who speak a language other than English at home, by translating our web content into over 100 different languages.
​
With a unique range of functions, the accessibility toolbar allows visitors to customize content based on personal preferences.
How do I access the Accessibility Toolbar?
You can open our Accessibility Toolbar by clicking on the “Accessibility Tools” button in the top right corner of the page.
This button now appears in the top right corner on every page of our website.
After you click on the “Accessibility Tools” button, the toolbar opens and displays a range of different options for customizing the way the website looks and ways you can interact with the content.
