uodsp: MIUSA job announcement

Mon Oct 11 15:06:04 PDT 2021

Hey Daniel

Justin from Mobility International USA. Good question. I actually think you could probably make that judgment for yourself by taking a look at our website: www.miusa.org. 

We are actually in the process of creating a new website, and we are in fact consulting with a firm that specializes in accessible websites. I’m happy to answer any other questions you might have. That goes for any feedback you might have about our website.

Thank you for your interest in our organization.

Best regards
Justin
