Description

If accessibility isn’t included from the beginning of a build, development teams can feel blindsided and resentful of the extra work accessibility seems to pose. How can we take a high-pressure high-visibility situation and create an environment where everyone feels successful and valued? The +1 practice highlights specific examples of teams’ work in which accessibility is already demonstrated and suggests one additional step to enhance existing work. This strategy recognizes effort, breaks accessibility into understandable concepts, makes success achievable, and results in teams that view accessibility positively and proactively incorporate it into future builds.
