AT&T, Inc. launched a new corporate accessibility technology office that is designed to promote accessibility in company's products and services. The organization will be led by Christopher Rice, who has been named company's first Chief Accessibility Officer. From early work on relay services to current offerings such as the award winning U-verse Easy Remote and AT&T Mobile Accessibility Lite, AT&T's commitment to supporting people with disabilities spans decades.

This new corporate structure will help ensure accessibility remains a top priority into the future as well as add defined accountability into the corporate governance structure to advance company's efforts in this important field.
