Our Brief

Audubon Society of Rhode Island is committed to protecting birds, other wildlife, and their habitats through conservation, education, and advocacy, for the benefit of all other life. As a proud and strong advocate for equal access to nature for all, they sought to make their website more accessible for everyone, including those with disabilities and people who speak a language other than English at home.

Our Solution

By implementing the Recite Me assistive toolbar on its website, the Audubon Society of Rhode Island can provide screen reading options, styling, and customization tools, reading aids, and an on-demand live translation feature that supports over 130 different languages.

To open the tools, select the ‘accessibility icon’ on the bottom right side of the website. In 2023, the toolbar was launched over 1,285 times to make 11,304 pages inclusive. The most commonly used features included text-to-speech software and translation tools, with Arabic and German being the most widely used language.

  • “At the Audubon Society of Rhode Island, we believe that everyone should have access to the natural world. By implementing the ReciteMe toolkit into our website, we are able to connect even more people with nature. Those with disabilities or differing language needs can more readily access information on the various ways Audubon serves their communities, how they can get involved, and where they can get outside and experience the natural beauty of an Audubon Society of Rhode Island Wildlife Refuge. With the climate crisis upon us, Audubon strives to engage, educate and empower both individuals and communities to help protect the natural spaces that are invaluable to the well-being of all living things.”
