ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT.
Friends of MSHA is committed to making our website accessible to people with disabilities. We are constantly working to improve the accessibility and usability of our site.
What web accessibility is
Web accessibility refers to the inclusive practice of removing barriers that prevent interaction with, or access to websites, by people with disabilities. When sites are correctly designed, developed, and edited, all users have equal access to information and functionality.
Accessibility adjustments on this site
We have taken steps to ensure our website complies with WCAG [2.0 / 2.1 / 2.2 - select relevant option] guidelines, and have made the site accessible to the level of [A / AA / AAA - select relevant option]. Our efforts include adapting the site to work with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard use. We have also ensured clear heading structures, added alternative text to images, and implemented color combinations that meet the required color contrast.
