Program/Service Notes:

Access Israel, is a non-profit organization dedicated to making Israel an accessible place for all. The concept of “accessibility for all” means that every disabled person should participate in society as an equal, dignified, and independent Israeli citizen; in practice, “accessibility for all” means that every location is available for every person to freely move in , as well as use and experience the location.  We are involved in several projects including:

Access Key  - we designed and developed a unique and unprecedented online accessibility information database. This service provides information on the web on the degree and kind of accessibility available in different places from all walks of life.

Access Israel “Badge of Honor”  - Access Israel’s “Badge of Honor” is awarded to those locations which have made themselves accessible beyond the minimal requirements established by law.

Access Israel Legislation Lobby - Access Israel has become the primary voice in promoting legislation focusing on accessibility issues.

 Access Israel Awareness - A national awareness campaign on television, radio and  newspapers, intended to promotie and raisie public awareness, receptiveness and positive societal conditions for the disabled daily needs.

Accessible  Web – together with other Israeli organizations, such as the Israeli Internet Association,  we are promoting accessibility to the Web in Israeli websites.
