Accessibility Statement
Last Updated: February 1, 2026
The Vericker Foundation is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards to ensure our resources—from homeownership guides to partner connections—are available to all.
1. Our Commitment
We believe that the path to homeownership should be open to everyone. We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA standards. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide array of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities.
2. Actions We Are Taking
To ensure a seamless experience, we are working to:
-
Provide Alternative Text: Ensuring all images have "alt text" so screen readers can describe them.
-
Keyboard Navigation: Making sure our site can be navigated entirely without a mouse.
-
Color Contrast: Using high-contrast colors to ensure text is readable for users with low vision.
-
Consistent Structure: Using proper headings and labels to make the site predictable and easy to understand.
3. Current Status
While we strive for perfection, we acknowledge that accessibility is an ongoing effort. Some areas of our website may currently be in the process of being updated, or may rely on third-party plugins (such as maps or social media feeds) that are outside of our immediate control.
4. Feedback & Contact Information
We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of The Vericker Foundation’s website. If you encounter any barriers or have suggestions on how we can improve, please let us know:
-
Email: help@verickerfoundation.org
We try to respond to feedback within five (5) business days.
