Web Accessibility & Digital Content Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The Council faces active WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance mandates with a hard deadline of April 24, 2026, while relying heavily on documents, forms, and training materials distributed across multiple platforms. These gaps create meaningful legal exposure and risk excluding vulnerable populations from critical public-facing resources.
The opportunity
The 2026 deadline creates a defined procurement window, and grant programs supporting accessible outreach materials may offer an indirect funding path. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the Council to reduce compliance risk and ensure equitable access to services for those it serves.

About this project
The Council has identified critical preparedness gaps — no current Emergency Operations Plan, no mass-notification platform, and no HSEEP-style exercises — leaving the organization operationally exposed during crisis events and out of alignment with state-level preparedness standards.
The opportunity
Tennessee's state budget includes a $42M nonrecurring grant pool for emergency and community services, creating a near-term indirect funding pathway. Addressing these gaps now reduces operational risk, strengthens crisis response, and positions the Council to act within the current funding cycle.

Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Governance
High Priority
About this project
State-level enterprise cybersecurity mandates, including password security requirements, apply broadly to public-sector entities and represent an unaddressed compliance risk if posture remains unverified. Without confirmed controls in place, the Council faces potential exposure to credential-based threats and audit findings.
The opportunity
Active state mandates create a clear compliance driver, and the absence of incumbent solutions presents an open window to establish foundational controls ahead of enforcement scrutiny. Addressing this during the current fiscal cycle supports risk reduction and aligns with responsible stewardship of public resources.
