COAT Affiliate AAPD Ensures Captioning of Broadband Coalition Video Materials

COAT affiliate AAPD has asked the new industry-driven coalition, Broadband for America, to ensure that its TV commercials and online video clips are captioned. This coalition's goal is to make broadband access to the internet available to every household at higher speeds and sufficient bandwidth.

For cc'g example, see "Resilient" TV commercial. Additionally, most of the online videoclips stored on the website are closed captioned (although a few are not). For more information on the Broadband for America coalition, or to join, contact them using online form.

AAPD is a member of this coalition and is working on making sure other accessibility is incorporated into the website, e.g., alt tags for images and screen-readable forms.
