Mozilla Accessibility Lessons

Mozilla maintains great developer documentation and has lessons specifically geared toward understanding accessibility and making the web more accessible. If you want to learn HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, this is a great place to start as Mozilla has lessons on those topics as well.
