Call for Participation in Accessibility Roles and Responsibilities Mapping (ARRM) Community Group

The Accessibility Roles and Responsibilities Mapping (ARRM) Community Group has been launched:

This is the community group for individuals interested in contributing to the development and maintenance of the Accessibility Roles and Responsibilities Mapping (ARRM) framework.

The purpose of the ARRM is to guide web teams (designers, developers and content creators) and subject matter experts in successfully distributing accessibility responsibilities by roles in a web development lifecycle, so that every stakeholder understands the role that they have to play in embedding accessibility requirements and best practices in their workflow in order to make digital content more usable to – and inclusive of – people with various types of disabilities.

This group will not publish Specifications.

In order to join the group, you will need a W3C account. Please note, however, that W3C Membership is not required to join a Community Group.

This is a community initiative. This group was originally proposed on 2024-10-23 by Jennifer Chadwick. The following people supported its creation: Shawn Lawton Henry, Sharron Rush, Mike Gifford, Denis Boudreau and Jennifer Chadwick. W3C’s hosting of this group does not imply endorsement of the activities.

The group must now choose a chair. Read more about how to get started in a new group and good practice for running a group.

We invite you to share news of this new group on social media and other channels.

If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please email us at site-comments@w3.org

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
