ADA Title II Website Compliance for Government and Higher Education

Audits, remediation, and ongoing monitoring to bring your city, county, district, or college website to WCAG 2.1 AA — and keep it there.

ADA Title II for Government and Higher Education

What ADA Title II Requires

ADA Title II applies to state and local government entities — cities, counties, special districts, school districts, public colleges, and universities — regardless of size.

  • The Department of Justice’s 2024 rule set the technical standard for digital content at WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
  • It covers more than your home page: web pages and navigation, PDFs and documents, online forms, video and media, mobile apps, and the third-party tools you embed.
  • Blue Atlas works to WCAG 2.2 AA, which includes everything in 2.1 and keeps you ahead of the next update.

April 2026: Compliance deadlines extended by one year.

Organizations serving 50,000+ need to conform by April 26, 2027 and those serving under 50K need to conform by April 26, 2028


Where Are You Right Now?

Most teams arrive here knowing they have to act but are not sure what they need first.

I don’t know where we stand.

Get a manual audit that shows exactly where your site falls short of WCAG, with each issue rated and mapped.

I already have a list of problems.

From our audit, another vendor’s scan, or a complaint, we fix the issues in your code and verify each one.

I need to stay compliant.

Keep your site compliant year-round with monitoring, scheduled audits, staff training, and ongoing remediation.

Accessible Websites Enable ALL Users Access to Your Website and Digital Assets

When a public website isn’t accessible, real people can’t complete real tasks:

Accessible websites

Cities and Counties

A resident using a screen reader can’t pay a utility bill, apply for a permit, or read a public notice.

School Districts

A parent can’t open the board-meeting agenda PDF or complete an enrollment form.

Community Colleges

A prospective student can’t register for classes or finish a financial-aid application.

Special Districts

A ratepayer can’t find service, billing, or emergency information when they need it.

Why Blue Atlas

  • Public-sector and higher-ed focus. We understand Title II, procurement, and the realities of decentralized government and campus websites.
  • We don’t just find problems, we fix them. Audits hand off cleanly to our in-house remediation team.
  • Real fixes, not overlays. We don’t sell accessibility widgets or overlays. Courts have repeatedly found they don’t make a site compliant. We address issues in the code, where they live.
  • Tested by people who live it. Our findings reflect how people with disabilities actually experience your site, not a checklist run by someone guessing at the barriers.
  • Credentialed, accountable delivery. Certified accessibility specialists test the work, certified project managers keep it on schedule, and you get a named point of contact.

Is Your Website Using an Accessibility Overlay?

If your site uses an accessibility widget or overlay, it isn’t compliant.

Overlays adjust a page from the outside and don’t change the underlying code, so the barriers remain, and lawsuits increasingly target sites that have one installed. Real compliance means fixing the source.

Not sure where to start?

Tell us about your site and your deadline, and we’ll point you to the right first step: audit, remediation, or a managed program.
