2024 - Honorable Mention for Best Practices for Improving Accessibility for Voters with Disabilities

As the November 2024 election approached, the Boone County Clerks Office focused on ramping up voter education efforts across the County. When a voter came into the office with questions about the ballot and a request for information specifically for the Deaf community, Boone County worked with a local interpreting service to create a consecutively translated American Sign Language explainer on important information about how and where to vote and what was needed to cast a ballot. The explainer was shared across social media platforms and reached hundreds of voters.
