AFB & AAPD Webinar — ADA Title II Web Accessibility Rules

Title II Digital Accessibility Webinar. April 9, 2026. 3PM Eastern. The host's logos read AAPD and AFB.

What is happening with the 2024 web and mobile app accessibility rules? AFB and AAPD hosted a webinar to learn about a potential threat to web accessibility and what to do about it.

Title II of the ADA requires state and local governments to make their websites and apps accessible to people with disabilities. A key compliance deadline for the 2024 rule is coming up on April 24, 2026, but a potential Interim Final Rule could weaken those requirements.

The webinar featured experts on the frontlines of this issue:

  • Jay Wyant, Chief Information Accessibility Officer, State of Minnesota
  • Jennifer Mathis, Deputy Director, Bazelon Center & former DOJ official who helped finalize the 2024 rule
  • Stephanie Enyart, Chief Public Policy and Research Officer, American Foundation for the Blind
  • Maitreya Shah, Technology Policy Director, American Association of People with Disabilities

We covered what the proposed changes mean, what's at stake for the disability community, and steps state and local governments can take to build accessible digital services.
