Education
Young Americans Center
Young Americans Center for Financial Education runs the only bank in the world for kids alongside a set of hands-on programs, AmeriTowne, International Towne, Money Matters, YouthBiz, and summer camp, that teach financial literacy to youth. Two audiences, two brands, one mission, and previously two disconnected websites. DoodleWeb ran a brand and experience repositioning, then rebuilt the platform on WordPress at WP Engine: a sub-brand system that lets Young Americans Center, Young Americans Bank, and each program keep its own color world while sharing one component library, program pages that lead with a plain-language promise instead of nonprofit jargon, and an editorial model that keeps mission content and regulated bank content cleanly separated. Shipped in 18 weeks. WCAG 2.2 AA conformant.

Education
George Brown College
George Brown College engaged DoodleWeb for a full AODA and WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility audit and remediation across their Drupal 10 platform serving 30,000+ students, 100+ editors, and 8 faculties. Combined automated scans (axe-core, Pa11y, Lighthouse CI) with manual expert testing (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, keyboard-only) surfaced 412 unique WCAG failures across 47 templates. In 24 weeks, DoodleWeb closed 100 percent of Level A and AA issues, shipped an AODA-conformant component library, delivered a VPAT 2.5 (WCAG 2.2 AA and AODA), lifted the average Lighthouse accessibility score from 74 to 98, and trained 100+ editors on accessible content practices. The college now publishes across faculties without reintroducing barriers, backed by weekly automated regression scans in CI.
accessibility
WCAG 2.2 AA, Section 508, and VPATs on request.

Included in every build
Semantic HTML, keyboard-navigable components, visible focus states, labeled forms, alt text workflows for editors, color contrast baked into the design system, and an automated axe pass before launch.
Add-on remediation and VPATs
Full WCAG 2.2 AA audit with an issues log, manual NVDA / JAWS / VoiceOver / keyboard testing, VPAT 2.5 (ACR) and conformance statement authoring, remediation sprints on legacy templates, and ongoing monitoring with a monthly report.
Q&A
Drupal development in Washington DC: questions we get asked
How much does drupal development cost in Washington DC?
DoodleWeb drupal development projects for Washington DC organizations start at $25,000. Scope drives the number: page count, integrations, content migration volume, and accessibility requirements. You get a fixed written scope and price before any work begins, and we flag anything that would change it in writing rather than invoicing a surprise.
How long does a drupal development project take?
Most Washington DC engagements run 10 to 16 weeks from kickoff to launch. Discovery and content modeling take the first one to two weeks, design and build take the middle block, and the final week covers QA, redirects, analytics, and training. Rush timelines are possible when content is ready on day one.
Does DoodleWeb have an office in Washington DC?
DoodleWeb LLC is headquartered at Columbia Tower, 701 5th Ave, 42nd Floor, Seattle, WA 98104, and serves Washington DC clients remotely with overlapping working hours, recorded calls, and a shared project board. Clients in Washington DC get the same senior team, contract, and support SLA as Seattle clients. You can reach us at info@doodleweb.io or (425) 359-0168.
What is included in a drupal development engagement?
Every engagement includes a Drupal 10/11 build or upgrade with content modeling, migration, and WCAG 2.2 AA testing. That covers discovery workshops, a documented information architecture, a component-based design system, accessible front-end code targeting WCAG 2.2 Level AA, analytics and conversion tracking, SEO and answer-engine structure such as schema and answer-first content blocks, plus editor training and documentation.
Who will actually do the work?
A senior DoodleWeb strategist, designer, and engineer, all employed by DoodleWeb. There is no junior handoff and no anonymous outsourcing. DoodleWeb was founded in 2019 by Chandan Sharma and Kamal Sudha and holds WP Engine Advanced Partner, Shopify Partner, Acquia/Drupal certified, Webflow Professional Partner, and Certified Lovable Solution Partner status.
What happens after launch?
You can leave with everything, or stay on a maintenance plan from $450 per month covering updates, backups, uptime monitoring, security patching, and a monthly change budget. Either way you own the code, the hosting account, the analytics, and the domain. Nothing is locked to a proprietary DoodleWeb platform.
Will the site be found in AI search as well as Google?
Yes. Every build ships with entity-consistent Organization schema, Service and FAQPage structured data, answer-first content blocks, and an llms.txt file so ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews can quote the site accurately. Teams that add our AI search optimization retainer typically see citation lifts within 60 to 90 days.
Which accessibility standards does DoodleWeb build to for drupal development in Washington DC?
Every drupal development build we ship in Washington DC targets WCAG 2.2 Level AA as the baseline, with Section 508 alignment for US public-sector and higher-ed clients, ADA Title II readiness for state and local government sites, and AODA compliance available for Canadian audiences. Testing combines axe-core and WAVE automation with manual NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, and keyboard-only walkthroughs.
Do you issue VPATs or accessibility conformance statements?
Yes. We publish a formal VPAT 2.5 (ACR) and a plain-language accessibility conformance statement as a paid deliverable, typically produced by our accessibility specialists after a Level AA audit. The VPAT covers WCAG 2.2, Section 508, and EN 301 549, and is suitable for procurement, RFP responses, and Title II documentation.
What accessibility work is included in a typical build versus a remediation engagement?
Included in every build: semantic HTML, keyboard-navigable components, visible focus states, labeled forms, alt text workflows for editors, color contrast in the design system, and an automated axe pass before launch. Offered as an add-on: a full WCAG 2.2 AA audit with an issues log, manual assistive-tech testing, VPAT / ACR authoring, remediation sprints on legacy templates, and ongoing monitoring with a monthly report.
Can you audit and remediate an existing site, not just build new ones?
Yes. Our audit and remediation practice runs independently of new builds. We have shipped WCAG 2.2 AA remediation for university, cultural, and enterprise sites including George Brown College and Trinity Western University, closing hundreds of issues, adding reduced-motion fallbacks, and lifting Lighthouse accessibility scores from the low 70s into the high 90s.
