Accessibility Commitment

Addiction Resource is committed to ensuring that our online materials and resources are accessible to all individuals. We believe that information about addiction, recovery, and wellness should be available to everyone in a format that is easy to navigate and understand, regardless of ability.

We approach accessibility as a continuous responsibility, an extension of our mission to educate, support, and empower individuals seeking help and guidance.

Standards and Compliance

Our website is designed and maintained in conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA, developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These standards establish best practices in order to make digital content perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for users with diverse needs.

Addiction Resource also aims to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 508 to ensure broad compatibility with assistive technologies, including screen readers, voice navigation tools, and text magnifiers.

Measures to Support Accessibility

We have implemented several measures to help ensure accessibility across our website:

• Accessibility Widget: The site integrates the UserWay accessibility widget, which allows users to customize their experience by adjusting text size, color contrast, spacing, and other display features.
• Readable and Flexible Text: All content is written in clear, structured language and designed for easy scaling through browser controls or assistive software.
• Keyboard Navigation: The website supports full keyboard operation, allowing visitors to navigate menus, links, and forms without the need for a mouse.
• Screen Reader Optimization: Our pages are routinely reviewed for compatibility with major screen readers to ensure that text alternatives and structural elements are properly communicated.
• Ongoing Evaluation: We perform regular accessibility audits and user testing to identify areas for improvement.
• Commitment to Growth: Accessibility best practices evolve, and so do we; our team actively incorporates updates to maintain compliance and enhance usability.

Known Limitations

We are aware that some PDF files and downloadable resources may not yet meet full accessibility standards. These documents are being redesigned to ensure compatibility with assistive technology.

Additionally, certain third-party applications or embeds, such as external maps, forms, or video players, may have accessibility limitations beyond our control. We continue to work with vendors to improve these integrations.
