What we found
What is wrong and who it affects, most serious first.
-
7
7 buttons or links are so small, or so close to others, that people with shaky hands may tap the wrong thing.
- Limited hand movement
-
6
Text in 6 places is too faint against its background, so people with low vision, or anyone reading a phone in sunlight, may struggle to read it.
- Low vision
- Color blindness
-
3
3 links have no name, so a blind visitor’s screen reader says just “link”, with no clue to where they go.
- Screen readers
- Voice control
-
2
2 parts of the page have labels that screen readers ignore, because of what those parts are, so a blind visitor may miss what they say.
- Screen readers
-
2
2 images have no description, so a blind visitor’s screen reader says only “image” or reads out file names.
- Screen readers
-
1
1 embedded section, such as a map, video or form from another site, has no title, so a blind visitor’s screen reader can’t say what it is.

The keyboard test
We pressed Tab 71 times through the homepage, as someone who can’t use a mouse would. What it found is shown here and is not yet counted in the score.
- Passed: “Skip to content” works. Keyboard users can jump past the menu.
- Passed: Focus can be seen. Every control we reached shows where the keyboard is.
Questions about this page
Does this mean the county is breaking the law?
No. This is an automated check against WCAG 2.1 AA, the standard the ADA Title II rule sets for state and local governments. Automated checks find many problems but not all, and only a full review can say whether a site meets the rule.
How often is this page updated?
Every three months, in January, April, July and October. Once its staff claim this page, they can also scan the site again, once a day; the new result shows here like our regular check, marked as checked at their request. The date at the top shows the latest check, and the score can go up as problems are fixed.
How can the county respond?
Staff with an email address ending in @carolinemd.org can claim this page to set its status for residents, see where each problem is, and scan the site again. Think a result is wrong? Tell us and we will check it again.
