The digital accessibility compliance landscape continues to evolve in 2024, with new rulemaking—and a steady pace of lawsuits—impacting the way in which organizations think about and prioritize online inclusion.
In this session, Level Access’s Director of Accessibility Advocacy, Corbb O’Connor, and prominent disability rights attorney Eve Hill will take a deep dive into the current state of digital accessibility compliance, unpacking new laws and recent lawsuits, along with insightful lessons for programs of every size and scale.
Their discussion will cover:

  *
The nuances of new accessibility regulations—including who they apply to, and how organizations can meet evolving compliance requirements
  *
The velocity of 2024 digital accessibility lawsuits and the impact of recent high-profile cases, such as those that made their way to the U.S. Supreme Court
  *
What current litigation is teaching organizations about long-term regulatory compliance
  *
Best-practice advice for staying ahead of compliance obligations in 2024 and beyond
