At some point in our lives, we all face barriers to access. Va11y strives to act as the voice of an accessible Vena by representing the needs of our own staff and collaborators. This includes the experience of our products and sales cycle by prospects and clients as well as the experience of internal processes by our employees, hiring candidates and visitors.
