About this file
This addendum clarifies website accessibility requirements for recipients of the Early Hearing Detection and Intervention National Network funding opportunity.

The single federal grant program associated with this opportunity is the Department of Health and Human Services' Health Resources and Services Administration program numbered 93.251 for Early Hearing Detection and Intervention. Recipients will maintain a high-quality, publicly accessible website as part of award requirements.

NOFO Number HRSA-24-035 NOFO Title Early Hearing Detection and Intervention National Network Addendum The HRSA-24-035 notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) requires recipients to maintain a high-quality, accessible, public-facing website. This addendum provides clarification on the language used to describe this requirement.
The NOFO uses the term “508 compliant” to describe website accessibility standards (NOFO pg. 10, 20). However, federal award recipients are required to adhere to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, Part 84, to ensure accessible communications for people with disabilities.
For the purposes of the HRSA-24-035 NOFO, HRSA would like to clarify that recipients should adhere to Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, rather than section 508.
