Briefly describe this site's objectives and how it has met those objectives (up to 125 words):

The Acorda Therapeutics website was designed to offer a more detailed and engaging user experience, with easily accessible information about all areas of the company including its employees, products and research.  Visitors have the opportunity to hear directly from employees who share video messages about Acorda’s work, culture and values. Visitors are also invited to learn about how Acorda is working to help patients living with different neurological conditions with clear, easily understood information. Navigation bars appear at the top of the page to make access more efficient.  The homepage has larger, more appealing icons. Photos continually present different messages of interest to Acorda stakeholders, including investors, patients, employees, clinicians and researchers.  This design brings visitors the specific information they need with enhanced emotional impact.
