Accessibility

Accessible by construction.

Urco builds WCAG 2.2 AA-conformant front-ends from the bones. Semantic structure, keyboard paths, screen-reader testing, accessible forms, and honest contrast — not an overlay, not a checklist, not theater.

What does WCAG-conformant implementation actually mean?

It means the site's HTML, CSS, and behavior meet the success criteria in WCAG 2.2 at the Level AA target — semantic markup, keyboard access, visible focus, sufficient contrast, accessible forms, and content that works with assistive technology. It does not mean a compliance badge or an overlay. It means the site itself is built correctly.
We document every engagement against specific success criteria, test with real assistive technology, and hand off remediation plans that reference the criterion being satisfied. The goal is a site that is defensible, usable, and maintainable by your team after we leave.

How we build accessibility.

Semantic structure
Real HTML5 landmarks. Heading hierarchy by design, not by accident.
Keyboard navigation
Every interactive element keyboard operable. Focus always visible.
Screen-reader aware
Tested with VoiceOver and NVDA on real content, not a demo page.
Accessible forms
Labels, instructions, errors, and validation patterns that actually help.
Contrast & readability
AA contrast on body and UI. Readable line lengths and line heights.
Content clarity
Plain language. Clear hierarchy. Text as the carrier, not decoration.
Reduced motion
Respect prefers-reduced-motion globally. Motion is a preference, not a surprise.
Touch targets
48×48px minimum. Thumb-friendly spacing on every mobile control.
FAQ

Common questions about accessibility.

What standard do you build to?

WCAG 2.2 AA by default. Higher on request. We reference specific success criteria in every audit and remediation plan.

Do you use accessibility overlays?

No. Overlays make legal teams comfortable and screen-reader users frustrated. We build the underlying markup correctly and test with real assistive technology.

Can you help with ADA risk?

We build conformant front-ends and document the WCAG criteria we meet. We are not a law firm and do not offer legal indemnification — but we give your counsel the technical substrate they need.

How is Section 504 relevant?

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act applies to federally funded schools. It requires that public-facing digital communication be accessible to students and families with disabilities. We design school sites with that requirement in mind.
