Maine accessibility law

Web accessibility in Maine is governed primarily by the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, Titles II and III).

Federal law — the ADA

Both Title II (state and local government) and Title III (public accommodations) of the ADA apply in Maine. Web accessibility is enforced under both, with conformance benchmarked against the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) — currently version 2.2 Level AA in most contexts, version 2.1 AA in the DOJ Title II final rule.

Steps to comply in Maine

  1. Adopt WCAG 2.2 Level AA as your conformance target.
  2. Audit every public-facing property, including subdomains and PDFs.
  3. Publish an accessibility statement with a contact channel for accessibility feedback.
  4. Maintain a current VPAT/ACR for public-sector procurement.
  5. Re-audit annually; regression-test on every release.
