# Accessibility at ParentSquare

## Focus on inclusive engagement

At ParentSquare, we believe equity begins with access. We are dedicated to providing accessible experiences to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We view accessibility not as a checklist, but as an ongoing commitment to inclusive design and continuous improvement.

## Commitment to accessibility standards

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the technical standards referenced by the U.S. Department of Justice under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.

The US Department of Justice policy mandates that state and local governments comply with the WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards by April 2026*. Our platform conforms to WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards.

In addition, various states are mandating compliance with the WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. Our platform conforms to WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards.

Our platform is designed to help our district customers meet their obligations under Section 504 and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

To deliver on our accessibility commitments:

- We design, develop, and test our platform with accessibility in mind.
- We regularly evaluate our platform against WCAG standards using both automated and manual testing methods.
- We engage accessibility professionals to review and advise on improvements.
- Our team continuously updates our content, technology, and design practices to reflect evolving accessibility standards and user needs.

_*We are aware of the_ [_Interim Final Rule_](https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/04/20/2026-07663/extension-of-compliance-dates-for-nondiscrimination-on-the-basis-of-disability-accessibility-of-web) _published by the US Department of Justice extending these compliance deadlines._ _Our platform continues to conform_ _with these standards._

"The experience within ParentSquare’s communication and website capabilities has significantly improved communication between schools and families. ParentSquare is incredibly user-friendly, with built-in ADA compliance tools and automatic translation features that accommodate our diverse community."
