Website Accessibility

Wilkinson County is committed to providing residents, visitors, businesses, and members of the public with access to County information and services, including people with disabilities.

Our Commitment to Accessibility

Wilkinson County is working to make its website and digital services accessible and usable by as many people as possible, including individuals who use assistive technologies such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, magnification software, voice recognition software, and other accessibility tools.

The County's accessibility efforts are guided by Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.

Accessibility is an ongoing process. Wilkinson County will continue reviewing and improving website content, documents, forms, navigation, and other digital services as resources and technology allow.

Accessibility Improvements

Keyboard Access

Website content should be usable without requiring a mouse whenever possible, including navigation, links, buttons, and forms.

Readable Content

The County is working to use clear headings, meaningful links, readable text, and sufficient contrast throughout the website.

Images & Graphics

Meaningful images should include alternative text so important information can be understood by people who cannot see the image.

Mobile & Zoom

Pages are being updated to work more effectively on phones, tablets, smaller screens, and when users enlarge or zoom website content.

Forms & Documents

Wilkinson County is reviewing forms, PDFs, and other documents to improve accessibility and provide accessible alternatives when needed.

Ongoing Review

New and existing website content will continue to be reviewed for accessibility issues as the County updates its website.
