Digital Accessibility

Web Accessibility Statement

UCSF is committed to providing an online environment that is accessible to everyone, including individuals with visual, auditory, motor or cognitive disabilities.

Improving accessibility benefits all of us by helping to improve Search Engine Optimization (SEO), future-proof content and promote a model of inclusivity.

If you are experiencing a web accessibility issue with content on a website or posted PDF documents  on the UCSF website, please contact us to report an accessibility issue and include the URL. More information below.

How to Report an Accessibility Issue

IT Web Services strives to provide website administrators with accessible website templates, a compliance monitoring tool and training to ensure a positive user experience. If you cannot access website or web application content or use a feature with assistive technology, please report an accessibility issue. This is our accessibility complaint investigation and resolution process.
