That moment when you know your website is
ADA Compliant & WCAG Accessible!
Avoid litigation, fines, attorney fees, and
negative PR by being proactive!
School districts all across the country are being served notice by the Office for Civil Rights (Part of the U.S. Department of Justice) that their websites are not ADA compliant.
Many with visual, hearing, speech, and physical disabilities rely on assistive technology that are essential to navigate computers and the internet. When a website is not ADA Compliant, then these forms of assistive technology can’t work, thus creating a barrier between those with disabilities and the information or service a company or organization provides.
