Accessibility for Users of Assistive Technology

The National Finance Center (NFC) is committed to providing applications that may be used with assistive technology.

In order to meet this commitment, NFC will comply with the requirements of the United States Access Board.

NFC must ensure that users with disabilities be provided with access to have the same options within an application as those with no disability, unless an undue burden would be imposed upon NFC.
