Our commitment to making civic participation accessible to everyone.

What We Do

- Provide translations in Spanish and Vietnamese for key content
- Use semantic HTML and proper heading structure for screen reader compatibility
- Maintain sufficient color contrast throughout the platform
- Support keyboard navigation across all interactive elements
- Design responsive layouts that work across devices and screen sizes
Standards
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level. We recognize that accessibility is an ongoing effort and we are continually working to improve.
