John Hunt, the website Manager for the DRC says of the Word Bank pilot “We are always looking for new ways to make our information easier to understand and use. We think Word Bank can be helpful, especially if you have a learning disability or if English isn’t your first language.”
Word Bank enables companies to extend their website accessibility and assist comprehension, learn about people it helps to reach.
