MINNEAPOLIS, April 23, 2008—New Web pages with enhanced features for deaf, hard of hearing and deafblind users have been launched at http://www.dhhsd.org, part of the Minnesota Department of Human Services website.

The new design features more links with visual qualities that make it easier for users to find information. Photographs, for example, contain links to information about the subject of the photographs.

“We believe the new design will make these pages a more useful tool for those who are deaf, hard of hearing and deafblind,” said Bruce Hodek, Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services Division director.
