About the Show

June 20, 2024

The Great Lakes ADA Center in collaboration with the ADA National Network invites you to register for the ADA Audio Conference Webinar titled “Special Session! New ADA Title II Regulations for Websites and Mobile Apps.” Speakers are:

  • Rebecca Guterman, Attorney Advisor for the Disability Rights Section, Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice
  • Badar Tareen, Attorney Advisor for the Disability Rights Section, Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice

On April 24, 2024, the Department of Justice (DOJ) published a final rule under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to ensure the accessibility of web content and mobile applications (apps) for people with disabilities. This final rule clarifies the obligations of state and local governments to make their websites and mobile apps accessible to people with disabilities. In this webinar, the Department of Justice (DOJ) will provide an overview of the new requirements under the final rule, exceptions, and compliance deadlines.

Before the session, attendees are encouraged to review the DOJ Fact Sheet: Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Accessibility of Web Information and Services of State and Local Government Entities:https://www.ada.gov/resources/2023-07-20-web-nprm/
