Assertion 10

It asks for a few things.

Our template, hosting, domain reg and email provide the complete package to ensure your covered.

NALC has a resource to help you

The main thrust of Assertion 10 is to ensure the website is WCAG 2.2 compliant - Our template meets this requirement when deployed.

It also recommends moving to a .gov domain - We can help that happen. Its not a requirement though.

It does state that emails like "gmail" and "hotmail" are not meant to be used any longer. All our packages include emails to ensure clerks and councillors can say "Yes" to assertion 10.
