Equality New Mexico

Since 1993, Equality New Mexico (EQNM) has been a trusted partner in uplifting the voices and leadership in the community by creating a reality of equity, full access, and sustainable wellness for LGBTQ New Mexicans.

Through their work of statewide movement building, Trans community advocacy, political advocacy, and more, EQNM has continually worked to address the needs of LGBTQ New Mexicans, as well as mobilizing hundreds of LBGTQ individuals and allied communities across New Mexico.

Our Brief

EQN believes that each LGBTQ individual is a vital community member of New Mexico. LGBTQ New Mexicans are more than just their LBGTQ identity, and their health and well-being are crucial to creating a stronger and more balanced world. Their mission is to challenge any structural and individual barriers that limit a person’s self-determination and ability to thrive.

With this in mind, Equality New Mexico sought a solution to eliminate barriers that may prevent users from accessing their website for resources and opportunities. The Recite Me toolbar was implemented on EQN to ensure their online information and services are easily accessible and user-friendly for everyone.

Our Solution

The Recite Me Accessibility Toolbar enables a barrier-free browsing experience on the Equality New Mexico website. Our award-winning inclusive web technology comes with a toolbar so each person can customize their experience in a way that best suits them.

Recite Me assistive technology includes screen reading functionality, multiple reading aids, customizable styling options, and an on-demand live translation feature that boasts over 100 languages, 65 of which can be read aloud.

"Equality New Mexico advocates for the rights of LBGTQ New Mexicans and works to expand access to meaningful opportunities through public policy and political engagement. Using the Recite Me tool on our website helps us reach more Queer and Trans people in New Mexico, whether that be by translating our information to Spanish and other languages our community uses, or by reading aloud information to folks with visual impairments and hidden disabilities."
