Accessibility Statement

We want everyone who visits the Every Voice, Every Vote website to feel welcome and to find the experience rewarding. As part of this ambition, The Lenfest Institute is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for anyone with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience and applying relevant accessibility standards.

What are we doing?

To help make the Every Voice, Every Vote website a positive experience for everyone, we use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, which explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities and user-friendly for everyone. The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We’ve chosen Level A as the target for this website.

We have also taken the following measures to ensure accessibility:

• Images have the appropriate alternative text.
• Our site is fully functional using a keyboard alone.
• Our site is compatible with modern screen readers.

Conformance Status

The Every Voice, Every Vote site is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 Level A. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content may not fully conform to the accessibility standard. We are working hard to achieve and maintain our goal of Level A accessibility; we realize, however, that there may still be some areas that need improvement. We will prioritize those issues that have the highest impact for most users.
