Web Accessibility Help


I am blind or can't see very well


I find a keyboard or mouse hard to use

If you find a keyboard or mouse challenging to use, speech recognition software such as Dragon NaturallySpeaking may help you navigate web pages and online services. This software allows the user to move focus around a web page or application screen through voice controls.

I am deaf or hard of hearing



A caption is a transcript for the audio track of a video presentation that is synchronized with the video and audio tracks. Captions are generally rendered visually by being superimposed over the video, which benefits people who are deaf and hard-of-hearing, and anyone who cannot hear the audio (e.g., when in a crowded room). Most of NAR's video content includes captions. Learn how to turn captioning on and off in YouTube

Volume controls
Your computer, tablet, or mobile device has volume control features. Each video and audio service has additional volume controls. Try adjusting both your device's volume controls and your media players' volume controls to optimize your listening experience.
