How Access Keys Work

With the link "active," as indicated by the link being highlighted, press Enter and your browser will take you to the corresponding page.

The Tab Key

For More on Web Accessibility

We offer the functionality of access keys on our web site to accommodate our visitors who use the keyboard rather than a mouse or other pointer device to get around our web site. Our web designer has redesigned our site with federal web accessibility requirements and guidelines in mind. The availability of access keys is part of the overall goal of accessibility. If you are interested, our designer prepared some notes on web accessibility.
