The City of Denton has chosen Recite Me as their partner in enhancing website accessibility. Our innovative accessibility and translation software is now integrated into Denton’s public-facing website, making it more inclusive and user-friendly for all community members.

At Recite Me, breaking down barriers to online access is a core belief, ensuring everyone can enjoy a seamless digital experience. Many traditional web designs fail to accommodate individuals with disabilities, creating accessibility challenges. By adopting our assistive toolbar, the City of Denton is advancing digital inclusivity without sacrificing design or functionality.

Dustin Sternbeck, Chief Communications Officer for the City of Denton, shared, “This integration was identified as an opportunity to improve our virtual experience for community members living with a disability. In today’s world, where everything we do is digitally driven, it’s crucial that we provide an experience that allows all residents and visitors to consume content in ways that work best for them.”

Denton is a unique community that prides itself on being welcoming, innovative, creative, and diverse.  It offers a vibrant atmosphere with opportunities for everyone, regardless of their interests or passions.

This initiative highlights Denton’s dedication to creating a community where everyone can access and benefit from online resources. To explore this new feature, visit www.cityofdenton.com and experience the Recite Me toolbar in action.

The City of Denton joins a growing list of state and local governments and agencies throughout the country offering Recite Me language and accessibility tools, including Hidalgo CountyDutchess County, Cameron County, and the New Mexico Secretary of State.
