Quick Guide to Accessible Social Media

Responsible social media use means being a good digital citizen. Good digital citizens know the importance of sharing inclusively. When you share inclusively, what you share is accessible to everyone. Not sure what that means? 

Mindy JohnsonDirector of Digital Communications & Outreach for AEM Center & CAST, created a useful graphic that explains how to share accessibly.
