ADA Title II Checker
WCAG 2.1 AA assessment plus a readiness checklist for the 2026 deadline.
Check ADA Title II Readiness
Title II of the ADA covers state and local government websites and apps. The DOJ's 2024 rule sets WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the technical standard, with compliance deadlines in 2026 and 2027. This tool scans a page against AA and gives you a readiness checklist.
Who must comply
- State and local government entities
- Public schools, universities, and libraries
- Public transit and courts
- Their third-party web content and apps
The standard
WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the benchmark. That covers contrast, keyboard access, captions, labels, reflow, and more — the same criteria this scanner and the readiness checklist are built around.
Key dates
The rule was published in 2024. Public entities serving 50,000 or more people must conform to WCAG 2.1 AA by April 24, 2026; those serving fewer than 50,000, and special district governments, have until April 26, 2027.
Not legal advice
This tool provides an automated technical assessment and a planning checklist. It does not constitute legal advice or certify compliance — consult an accessibility specialist and legal counsel for formal conformance.
