Beyond Barriers Counseling is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually working to improve the accessibility of our website, beyondbarrierscounseling.org, to provide equal access to information and services for all users.
What web accessibility is
An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.
Accessibility adjustments on this site
Beyond Barriers Counseling has taken steps to adapt this website in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, and we aim to meet Level AA accessibility standards. Our goal is to ensure that website content is accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals who use assistive technologies.
This website has been designed and adapted to support common assistive technologies, including screen readers, keyboard navigation, and other accessibility tools. As part of our ongoing accessibility efforts, we have implemented measures such as:
Providing clear and consistent navigation
Using readable fonts and sufficient color contrast
Adding alternative text to images where appropriate
Ensuring compatibility with keyboard-only navigation
Structuring content to be accessible to screen-reading software
We continue to review and improve our website to enhance accessibility and usability for all visitors.
Accessibility arrangements in the organization [only add if relevant]
