Social Media Accessibility

All posts made to Berkeley owned or managed social media accounts after April 24, 2026 are required to meet WCAG 2.1 AA requirements.

Learn more about the new requirements of ADA Title II update. 

We recommend integrating accessibility practices into your social media creation process, so content is accessible before it is published. Platforms may limit edits once a post is live, making remediation difficult or impossible without removing and republishing the post.
