Solutions for Connecticut
Connecticut Accessibility Policy + ADA Title II Compliance
Connecticut has had a Universal Website Accessibility Policy since 2000, and it now formally requires WCAG 2.1 Level AA for all state digital content. The federal ADA Title II web rule adds enforceable deadlines on top of that. For Connecticut agencies, every public-facing document — including PDFs — needs to be accessible. CASO Comply remediates them automatically instead of one at a time.
What Connecticut Already Requires
Connecticut's OPM has maintained accessibility policy for over two decades. The latest version explicitly requires WCAG 2.1 AA for all digital content — not just websites.
OPM Universal Website Accessibility Policy
Connecticut's Office of Policy and Management requires all state agency websites and digital content to be accessible to people with disabilities. The policy has been in place since 2000 and has been updated multiple times.
WCAG 2.1 Level AA Adoption
Connecticut has formally adopted WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the primary guideline for the Universal Accessibility Policy. All new digital content must be built to meet minimum WCAG 2.1 AA standards from the start.
State Digital Accessibility Policy (2025)
Connecticut's updated Digital Accessibility Policy extends accessibility requirements beyond websites to cover all digital content intended for consumer use, including PDFs, documents, and multimedia published by state agencies.
Agency Accessibility Designee Requirement
Each Connecticut state agency must designate an Accessibility Designee responsible for ensuring compliance with the Universal Accessibility Policy and resolving accessibility complaints from the public.
The Federal Clock Connecticut Is On
The DOJ's ADA Title II web rule defines “web content” to include documents posted on government sites — meaning public-facing PDFs that are still in use are in scope.

Why Connecticut Entities Choose CASO Comply
Clear the PDF Backlog Fast
Connecticut agencies have been publishing PDFs for decades — budget reports, legislative documents, permit applications, public notices. The Universal Accessibility Policy requires all digital content to be accessible, but many older documents were never remediated. CASO Comply automates that work so you can close the gap without pulling staff off their regular duties.
Stay Compliant on Every New Upload
Connecticut's policy applies to all new digital content from the point of creation. CASO Comply gives state agencies a repeatable workflow to make every new PDF accessible as it's published, so your Accessibility Designee isn't chasing compliance issues after the fact.
No Accessibility Expertise Required
Most Connecticut agencies have an Accessibility Designee, but that person usually has other responsibilities too. CASO Comply handles the technical PDF work — structure tags, alt text, reading order, metadata — so your designee can focus on oversight and policy rather than hands-on remediation.
