OUR COMMITMENT TO ACCESSIBILITY

The Florida Black Caucus of Local Elected Officials (FBC-LEO) is committed to ensuring accessibility of its website. FBC-LEO is actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of the website and in doing so adheres to many of the available standards and guidelines.

FBC-LEO does not discriminate in its programs and services on the basis of disability and complies with applicable provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

In order to further our commitment to nondiscrimination, we are currently working to update the website in order to ensure the site conforms to World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Such guidelines detail best practices for ensuring assistive technology users can access the site. The guidelines also make the site more user-friendly for all people.

Due to FBC-LEO’s integration with external vendors and entities, areas within the site remain beyond FBC-LEO’s control. Until the integration with these external vendors and entities is resolved, FBC-LEO can only achieve a partial leave of conformance according to WCAG.

Should anyone find information or functionality which is inaccessible, please complete our Accessibility Feedback Form. We will make every reasonable effort to accommodate. Any individual who believes material on this site is inaccessible and is considered to be a violation of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and/or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) may file a written grievance by email using the steps below: At a minimum, the written grievance should include:
