Our commitment: Bring new opportunities to millions by empowering anyone who has disabilities and challenges with access to life-changing technologies available through AT&T’s resources, products and services.
A message from Chief Accessibility Officer Suzanne Montgomery
Removing barriers one connection at a time
We all know someone who faces challenges — research shows that 1 in 5 people have a disability or an access need. So, at AT&T, we work tirelessly to make our products and services accessible for all of our customers.
From partnering with companies who build mobile-connected prosthetics to designing technology classes for those with low or no vision, AT&T is helping to move these initiatives forward. It’s making sure everybody in the world can partake in what the world has to offer. I understand the importance of inclusion. Growing up, I witnessed my younger sister’s struggle with epilepsy. It’s personal for me.
I’m so proud of what we’ve done in the accessibility space. It’s part of who we are at AT&T, making the world better and inspiring human progress through communication and entertainment.
