New Jersey Digital Accessibility Requirements
New Jersey Accessibility Statement asserts that state agencies shall take reasonable steps to design and develop Web sites and Web services so that they are accessible to people with disabilities as well as those without disabilities.
Agencies shall take reasonable steps to meet the Web accessibility standards issued by the Access Board, Part 1194 to Chapter XI of Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Subpart B Section 22, under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Agencies are strongly encouraged to go beyond the Section 508 accessibility standards and incorporate the additional Web design techniques contained in the W3C’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
Public Accommodation Laws
People cannot be denied access to or treated less favorably by a place of public accommodation because of their actual or perceived race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, gender identity or expression, or other protected characteristic.
