🌍 Our Commitment to Accessibility

At Resilience Society, we are committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people of all abilities. We believe everyone should be able to access support, resources, and community without barriers — including online. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards to ensure inclusivity.

✅ Accessibility Standards

We aim to meet or exceed the following standards:

WCAG 2.1 Level AA (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines)
Compatibility with assistive technologies (screen readers, keyboard navigation, etc.)
Clear, readable fonts and sufficient color contrast
Alternative text for images and media
Logical, consistent page structure and semantic HTML
Captioning or transcripts for videos (where applicable)

🖥️ Site Features That Support Accessibility

We have implemented the following features across our website:

Keyboard navigability for all menus and links
Descriptive alt text for meaningful images
Clear and consistent heading hierarchy
Zoom functionality up to 200% without breaking layout
Readable font choices (e.g., Ubuntu) and high-contrast color design
Accessible form fields with proper labels

👂 Language & Cultural Accessibility

We aim to provide multilingual options where possible, including English.
Our programs and written materials reflect the cultural backgrounds of the communities we serve.

🧩 Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is not a one-time effort. We are:

Regularly reviewing and testing our website for accessibility issues
Working with volunteers, users, and accessibility consultants
Providing training to our content editors and web managers
Updating forms, buttons, and embedded content for usability

🧠 Accessibility Beyond the Website

Our commitment also extends to in-person events and workshops. We strive to:

Select wheelchair-accessible venues
Offer quiet spaces during events for those with sensory sensitivities
Provide printed materials in large print or digital formats upon request
