Last updated: October 21, 2025

Scope and Commitment

This Accessibility Statement applies to all pages within the RoofingContractors.org domain, including user portals, membership pages, and resources provided by the American Roofing Contractors Organization (ARCO).

Conformance Status

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including blindness, low vision, hearing loss, cognitive limitations, limited movement, speech disabilities, photosensitivity, and combinations of these.

• Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
