Our Commitment to Accessibility
At Evergreen Vista Locations, we believe that digital accessibility is essential for ensuring that everyone, including individuals with disabilities, can access and enjoy our content and services. We are dedicated to providing a website that meets the needs of all users, and we are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our online presence.
We are committed to conforming to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines outline best practices for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities. By adhering to these guidelines, we strive to create a website that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for all users.
Our commitment includes regular audits and improvements to ensure ongoing compliance with accessibility standards. We welcome feedback from our users about their experiences with our website. If you encounter any accessibility barriers, please let us know, and we will do our best to address them promptly.
We understand that accessibility is an ongoing effort, and we are dedicated to staying informed about the latest accessibility guidelines and technologies. Our team receives regular training on accessibility best practices, and we incorporate accessibility considerations into every aspect of our website development and maintenance.
Evergreen Vista Locations embraces inclusive design principles. This means we strive to design our website with a wide range of users in mind, including those with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments. By incorporating inclusive design principles, we aim to create a website that is not only accessible but also user-friendly and enjoyable for everyone.
We regularly evaluate our website using automated testing tools, manual testing, and user feedback to identify areas for improvement. Our accessibility testing includes assessments with assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and speech recognition software. By combining various testing methods, we gain a comprehensive understanding of the accessibility of our website and can prioritize areas for remediation.
Our goal is to provide a seamless and inclusive experience for all users. We are committed to making our website a valuable resource for individuals with disabilities and ensuring that everyone can access the information and services they need.
Supported Technologies
Evergreen Vista Locations strives to support a wide range of assistive technologies to ensure that our website is accessible to as many users as possible. We have tested our website with the following technologies:
- NVDA (NonVisual Desktop Access)
- JAWS (Job Access With Speech)
- VoiceOver (Apple's built-in screen reader)
- ZoomText
- Dragon NaturallySpeaking
Our website is designed to work with the latest versions of these assistive technologies, as well as with commonly used web browsers, including:
- Google Chrome
- Mozilla Firefox
- Apple Safari
- Microsoft Edge
We regularly update our website to maintain compatibility with these technologies and to address any accessibility issues that may arise. We are committed to ensuring that our website remains accessible as technology evolves.
We use semantic HTML to structure our content, making it easier for assistive technologies to interpret and present information to users. We also provide alternative text descriptions for all images, ensuring that users who are unable to see images can still understand their content.
Our website is designed to be navigable using a keyboard alone. Users can easily move through our content using the tab key and activate interactive elements using the enter key. We also provide skip links to allow users to bypass repetitive navigation elements and go directly to the main content of the page.
We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to enhance the accessibility of our website's interactive elements. ARIA attributes provide additional information to assistive technologies about the role, state, and properties of elements, making it easier for users to understand and interact with them.
