Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium is committed to providing excellent service to all of our customers, including those with disabilities. To accomplish this, Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium has been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user-friendly for everyone.
The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA) and we’ve chosen Level AA as the target for our website. We have invested a significant amount of resources to help ensure that this website is made easier to use and more accessible for people with disabilities, with the strong belief that every person has the right to live with dignity, equality, comfort and independence. We are actively working to increase accessibility and usability of our website to everyone.
