Website Accessibility
Flathead County is committed to ensuring that its digital services are accessible to people with disabilities, including members of the public who rely on assistive technologies. As a unit of local government, we work to comply with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Our standard
This website is designed and maintained to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
What we do
Across this site we work to:
- Provide text alternatives for meaningful images and icons;
- Ensure content and controls can be operated with a keyboard alone;
- Maintain sufficient color contrast for text and interactive elements;
- Use clear headings, labels, and landmarks so assistive technologies can navigate the page;
- Convey information (such as charge or warrant severity) with text and shape, not color alone;
- Support text resizing and responsive layouts across devices.
Ongoing effort
Accessibility is an ongoing commitment. We continue to test and improve this site as standards and technologies evolve, and we remain committed to serving the widest possible audience for Flathead County's digital government services.
