Website Accessibility Standards
We aim to align our website with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA wherever possible. These guidelines serve as a benchmark for creating accessible digital content and functionality.
Accessibility Efforts
Despite our upgrades to improve accessibility, there are some lingering issues which will be addressed during our next website redesign. We acknowledge the following challenges:
- The Carousel, found on some web pages, do not audibly announce live region content updates with each slide transition, and the updating slide action may interfere with some screen reader cursor positioning.
- The Expandable Menu in the top Banner region is keyboard operable, but lacks screen reader features for an optimal user experience.
- The Tab Panel, on some web pages, is not designed with accessibility interactive features, making the screen reader experience in understanding the content relationships challenging.
