The Farmington Convention & Visitors Bureau now provides an inclusive experience online with accessibility and language support. Being able to offer support to those who may encounter barriers is very important to our business.
On our website, farmingtonnm.org, you can now activate a support tool by clicking the blue universal accessibility icon, located at the top right side of the screen. The Recite Me toolbar will fill the top of the screen, allowing you to choose from a range of features including translation into over 100 languages, text-to-speech functionality, reading aids, and styling options. This includes adjustments to color, font type, and size. To help our website visitors access our information barrier-free, everyone can customize their experience using the range of tools Recite Me offers.
Recite Me Web Accessibility and Language Toolbar

It helps the one in four people in the US who have a disability, including those with common conditions like sight loss and dyslexia, access our website in the way that suits them best. It also meets the needs of one in five people in the US who speak a language other than English at home, by translating our web content into over 100 different languages. Similarly, the language toolbar allows us to share our destination information with website visitors across the globe.
