Accessibility

Civic information is more useful when more people can actually use it.

Last updated September 9, 2026

Our approach

We aim for readable typography, sufficient contrast, keyboard-accessible navigation, meaningful structure, clear labels, and interfaces that work across common screen sizes and assistive technologies.

Ongoing work

Accessibility is an ongoing product requirement rather than a one-time certification. New features should be reviewed for keyboard use, focus behavior, labels, reading order, and responsive presentation.
