The MINDSOURCE – Brain Injury Network wants everyone who visits our website to feel welcome and have a rewarding experience. To that end, we are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience regardless of ability.
What are we doing?
To help us make mindsourcecolorado.org a positive place for everyone, we’ve selected the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 as our benchmark for accessibility. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible for people with disabilities, and more user friendly for everyone. The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We’ve chosen Level AA as the target for our website.
How are we doing?
MINDSOURCE – Brain Injury Network is working hard to achieve our accessibility goal, however we realize there are some areas that still need improving. The following information explains what we’re doing to make that happen.
MINDSOURCE – Brain Injury Network has conducted an accessibility audit to identify and prioritize accessibility issues. This audit included testing with popular assistive technologies, such as screen reading software. We are in the process of implementing the results of the audit to ensure accessibility improvements.
