CivicPlus® provides an Accessibility Checker for the content located in the Editor, FAQs, and News Flash widgets to ensure it complies with the ADA.
Important Notes
CivicPlus works toward WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards and our websites are highly compliant when they go live. However, ongoing ADA compliance and maintenance is the customer's responsibility.
Please contact your Customer Success Manager for information regarding our AudioEye partnership.
If you want the tool to check automatically every time, contact the CivicPlus Support team to turn that functionality on.
