ADA Compliance

Making sure your website and other communication materials are ADA compliant is not only the right thing to do. It’s the law.

Title III of the Americans with Disability Act (ADA)—which applies to private businesses—exists to ensure that individuals with disabilities have equal access, opportunity, participation, independence and economic self-sufficiency as individuals without disabilities.

If your business is open to the public, and/or includes commercial facilities, you must comply with the ADA Standards.

BBG&G can help you update your web site to comply with the new Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 that are rapidly being implemented across all industries today.

Examples of proactive website solutions include:

• Ensuring menus and navigation have appropriate coding to be utilized without a mouse, can work in text form and are logically arranged

• Ensuring headers and content can be logically read and understood in text form and by a text-to-audio/braille interpreter

• Ensuring that audio and video files are accompanied by a transcription

• Reviewing template layout for content flow

• Reviewing metadata tags

These are just a few of the measures you should be taking. Contact us to find out more.
