Mozilla Accessibility

Mozilla has a deeply rooted commitment to helping to create an Internet that is accessible to all because we believe that persons with disabilities should be able to interact with and enjoy the Web as those without disabilities do.
Our accessibility mission is to drive web accessibility forward by example and in collaboration.

Our efforts include:

• Creating free, open source solutions for individuals with disabilities
• Supporting innovative ideas and endeavors that empowers and equips persons with disabilities
• Developing products, sites, and services that are accessible and that follow modern web standards
• Promoting accessibility awareness and best practices
• Working on new and better ways to address current accessibility issues as well as potential ones that may arise with new technologies
