Learn the business case for improving web accessibility and how Drupal offers a more accessible experience for all customers.
Drupal Community
Drupal is created and used by one of the largest and most diverse open source communities on the planet. People from around the world collaborate together with a respectful and inclusive culture.
Everyone Is Welcome
Benefits of the Drupal Community
Everyone who uses Drupal benefits from the combined and coordinated efforts of the global community. This applies to everyone regardless of skill, age, disability, location, gender identity, or income level.
Shared innovation
Everyone who uses Drupal benefits from the combined and coordinated efforts of the global community.
With tens of thousands of developers sharing and improving the code, you don't have to do everything yourself.
World Class Security
Drupal has an organized process for investigating, verifying, and publishing possible security problems.
Potential issues are found and fixed before they can be exploited.
Community Events
The community coordinates events all year round ranging from large conferences to local camps.
These events are great ways to network, share, and learn new skills from one another.

Open Source CMS
A CMS for the Whole Team
Most of the CMS tools available are built for certain uses. Drupal is unique. It is a modular framework for assembling the specific CMS requirements that you need.
Drupal can be the single CMS toolset for the needs of today and those of tomorrow.
Shoulders of Giants
The community is building, extending, and publishing new modules all the time. Your team can leverage and reuse this work, which minimizes the need for custom code.
The result is a world class CMS that can be assembled and updated faster than most other solutions.
