Accessibility Statement
Commitment
The Town of Ignacio is committed to providing equitable access to our services to all Coloradans.
Our ongoing accessibility effort works towards being in line with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, level AA criteria. These guidelines help make technology accessible not only to users with sensory, cognitive and mobility disabilities, but ultimately to all users, regardless of ability.
Our efforts are just part of a meaningful change in making all State of Colorado services inclusive and accessible. We welcome comments on how to improve our technology’s accessibility for users with disabilities and for requests for accommodations to any of our services.

How We Are Implementing Accessibility
- Website Testing and Remediation
- We conduct automated testing of all webpages for accessibility and quality assurance.
- We continue to test and remediate our digital products in an effort to provide continuous improvement of our sites and applications.
- In addition, we make use of tools such as the Axe Dev Tools, Contrast Checker by WebAIM and other automated and manual testing tools.
Training
We provide accessibility training to all staff through required coursework, weekly meetings on accessibility topics, and regular targeted training. An intranet page dedicated to accessibility resources is also available to staff.
Procurement
We have developed systems and processes to ensure all digital products we procure meet established technical standards by including accessibility assurances in contracts, requiring vendors to complete a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) also known as an Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR), and validating the accessibility information we receive.
