Accessibility & usability barriers 

The following information is provided to help people with disabilities know what potential barriers may exist.

Screen reader barriers may impact users who are blind or have low vision and navigate via screen reader or other assistive technology

Screen reader inaccessible

When a user navigates with reading order to the “related resources” (under the Name in Use section) collapsed menu and selects the return key, the user is directed to edit their Name in Use rather than open the resources menu. This impacts users who are blind or have low vision and navigate via screen reader or other assistive technology.
