DOJ ADA Title II Rule
State and local governments must make covered web content and mobile apps conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Compliance dates are April 26, 2027 for public entities serving 50,000 or more people and April 26, 2028 for smaller public entities and special district governments.
Review the official DOJ Title II web and mobile app guidance.

DOJ Title II Readiness
The DOJ rule gives state and local governments a clear technical target: WCAG 2.1 Level AA for covered web content and mobile apps. Reaching that target requires more than a last-minute scan.
Counties and public agencies are responsible for public-facing department pages, online forms, payment systems, meeting content, maps, third-party platforms, mobile apps, PDFs, and services managed by outside vendors. A practical readiness review brings that environment into focus.

Testing Approach
Automated tools can find certain code-level issues quickly, but they cannot determine whether a real person can understand, navigate, and complete a task. Every engagement includes hands-on manual testing.
We use axe DevTools, ANDI, and WAVE to support the process, then test manually with keyboard-only navigation, NVDA, JAWS, zoom and reflow, focus behavior, forms, error handling, headings, landmarks, contrast, and other applicable interactions.
Identify critical user journeys, representative content, technology, and project questions.
Evaluate applicable requirements using manual testing, keyboard interaction, and assistive technology.
Document barriers with steps, user impact, priority, and practical remediation guidance.
Support remediation as needed, then retest completed work to confirm the fix.
