Digital Accessibility

In 2021 Colorado passed the Colorado Laws For Persons With Disabilities law (HB21-1110) which requires all state, local, and special district organizations to ensure websites and other digital content is accessible by July 2024.

Digital content that must be in compliance includes, but is not limited to websites, text, links, images, forms, PDFs, documents, and embedded third-party applications. Organizations are responsible for holding developers/vendors/third parties accountable for the accessibility of that platform that the entity manages.
