Accessibility Statement

Ark-Tex Council of Governments (ATCOG) is committed to providing a fully accessible website experience for all users of all abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, and alternative keyboard input devices to navigate the web.

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 as our guiding principle for determining accessibility. These are internationally agreed-upon standards that cover a wide range of recommendations and best practices for making content useable. As we add new pages and functionality to our website, all designs, code, and content entry practices are checked against these standards.

Optimal Experience

ATCOG.org is best used with the latest version of the Google Chrome web browser. Our site is designed to be compatible with common assistive technologies including screen readers and has been tested with NVDA. ATCOG.org may not display optimally in Internet Explorer or older browsers.

Commitment

ATCOG has taken multiple steps to ensure the accessibility of our online experiences:

  • ATCOG engages in interval audits to ensure the accessibility of ATCOG.org. We also use industry-standard scanning tools, color contrast analyzers, and keyboard-only navigation technology.
  • ATCOG further invests in training on accessibility for our digital team to ensure those working on content and website development and design are knowledgeable and follow best practices for accessibility.
