US Access Board Animations

The US Access Board is an independent federal agency that promotes equality for people with disabilities through leadership in accessible design and the development of accessibility guidelines and standards.

As required by Executive Order 13891, the Access Board has created guidance documents including animations. Below are animation videos that demonstrate how an accessible environment is used by people with disabilities.

Disclaimer: The US Access Board animations apply to the ADA and ABA only. State and local accessibility requirements may be more restrictive than the federal requirements. These guidance documents should not be relied upon for legal or design purposes.
