Date and Time: Thursday, August 28, 2025 | 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM Eastern Time | 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM Central Time
Host: Disability Belongs
Description:
Did you know that 1 in 4 adults in the U.S. has a disability? Many rely on screen readers or other assistive technologies to access digital content. By adding alternative text (alt text) and image descriptions to your website and social media, you ensure that people who are blind or have low vision can fully engage with your message, mission, and marketing efforts.
In this free training from Disability Belongs™, learn how to write effective alt text and image descriptions, the differences between the two concepts, and the steps you need to take to make your Facebook and Instagram posts accessible.
ASL interpretation and CART will be provided. Please email EricA@DisabilityBelongs.org if you need any other accommodations to fully participate in this training.
