Try the W3C at:

http://www.w3.org/WAI/

They can point you to a wealth of resources on accessibility including this
page specific to ADA:

http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/EO-Policy-USDOJ

ADA Accessibility Requirements Apply to Internet Web Pages

Entities to Title II or III of the ADA must provide effective communication
to individuals with disabilities, and covered entities that use the
Internet to provide information regarding their programs, goods or services
must be prepared to offer those communications through accessible means.
Such entities may provide web page information in text format that is
accessible to screen reading devices that are used by people with visual
impairments, and they may also offer alternative accessible formats that
are identified in a screen-readable format on a web page.
