AVAILABLE FUNDING FOR CAPTIONING Check the Federal Register for grant application notices of the Department of Education, Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services. The captioning grants information can be found under Chart 5, and can be accessed at this web link: http://ocfo.ed.gov/grntinfo/forecast/forecast.htm#chart5. Captions are an important aspect of the learning and social process for deaf and hard-of-hearing people and provide full access to the learning experience. It is well worth the time and effort for the media, software and entertainment developers and educators to search for and provide quality captioning services to meet the needs of the deaf and hard-of-hearing public.

Section 508 and guidelines  Special thanks to Chemical_X for this one. :)

• The US government's Section 508 requires all federal websites be fully accessible to the disabled.
• Section 508 also requires all vendors providing information to federal sites be fully accessible to the disabled.
• Over 10% of the online population is disabled (750 million people worldwide, 55 million Americans)
• According to iCAN, people with disabilities have a discretionary income of more than $188 billion dollars.
• Companies with accessible websites benefit from positive publicity.
• Companies with accessible websites protect themselves from litigation, costly settlements, unfavorable publicity, and potential loss of business.

Bobby, see if your page is 508 compliant?
