Accessibility Minute Newsletter Fourth Anniversary

The Digital Accessibility Office is thrilled and thankful to be writing this month's newsletter as we celebrate the fourth anniversary of the Accessibility Minute Newsletter.

Thank you for joining us on this incredible journey! As we mark this special occasion, let’s pause to reminisce on this last year’s monthly newsletters.
