Empowering our community to ensure accessible digital experiences for everyone

The Digital Accessibility Program was created and designed to provide resources, guidance and support to the Berkeley community in order to make accessibility a fundamental part of our digital experience.


We support and facilitate the implementation of the UCB/DOJ Consent Decree, UC's IT Accessibility Policy, and the updated requirements under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

If you edit, design, or manage a Berkeley website, it's critical that you understand your legal responsibilities and how to implement accessibility features. Our website provides a variety of resources and training materials to assist you.

Applications and web apps that are purchased or developed in-house must also meet accessibility requirements. Our Accessible Technology digital product review process can help.

Title II update

Title II of the ADA was updated in 2024 to require that state and local government websites meet WCAG 2.1 AA. For UC Berkeley, the requirement takes effect on April 24, 2026.

Learn about the new requirements and what it means for us.
