The National LGBTQ Task Force celebrated its 50th birthday this week by announcing a newly-redesigned website that include enhancements for accessibility. In a press release, the organization stated its new site was created \u201cwith a new user experience in mind\u201d and features Spanish language translation and a volunteer hub, amongst other things.<\/p>\n

With regards to accessibility, the Washington DC-based Task Force worked closely with Rad Campaign to ensure \u201call aspects of the website design and development are rooted in justice, equity, and accessibility, ensuring people with different abilities can navigate and easily interact with the new website.\u201d The design, which the Task Force says is WCAG compliant for contrast and text, has new colors and larger font sizes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re pleased to offer a new web format that is accessible to more members of the community and our allies,\u201d said the Task Force\u2019s communications director Cathy Renna in a statement for the press release. “The Task Force is grateful for our active volunteer base, and the newly updated site offers new ways to stay in touch and get involved as advocates, participating in virtual and in person events and trainings, volunteering at the Creating Change conference, and supporting our centerpiece fundraising events like the gala and Winter Party Festival.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Task Force was founded in 1973 as a means to \u201cachieving freedom and justice for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer people, and their families through proactive, targeted, change-inducing initiatives.\u201d The Task Force, the nation\u2019s oldest LGBTQ rights organization, describes itself as \u201cthe activists who drive the LGBTQ movement forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Task Force\u2019s current executive director is Kierra Johnson.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
