We have partnered with Level Access to provide software that can be easily downloaded to a computer to assist individuals in accessing information on the Internet.

The application features a number of keyboard and mouse replacement options that allow users to overcome any physical limitation to access the CBA website. The software benefits individuals with dexterity limitations that arise from a variety of conditions including:

  • stroke/paralysis
  • arthritis
  • Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
  • Cerebral Palsy (CP)
  • age-related factors

It also helps those who have difficulty reading because of:

  • literacy deficiencies
  • limited English proficiency
  • dyslexia or similar learning issues
  • mild visual impairment

Through its support of Level Access and its adherence to standards under the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG) and the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, the Association maintains an ongoing commitment to ensuring the CBA website is accessible to everyone.
