Building a digitally accessible Rice, together.

Digital accessibility means creating digital content, tools, and experiences that everyone can access, understand, and use. At Rice, digital accessibility is a shared responsibility and an important part of creating a welcoming university community. This site provides practical guidance for meeting WCAG 2.1, Level AA standards, resources, and support to help our faculty, staff, and students create accessible websites, documents, course materials, tools, and other digital content—no matter where you are in the process. Get started with our CARE framework.
