WA2012 Association Meeting - January 10th, 2011, Ottawa

Welcome to WA2012 (Web Accessibility 2012)

WA2012 is a newly formed informal association of people and businesses that have specific interest in the accessibility of government Websites.  We are composed of strategic advisors, trainers, designers, developers, implementers, integrators, software companies and more.

The formation of the group was sparked by two things:
