Our Commitment to Web Accessibility

Romero House is committed to offer a fully accessible website experience for all users of all abilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies like screen readers, screen enlargement software, and alternative keyboard input devices to navigate the web. We are working on fixing the issues to become fully compliant, offering some accessibility features, and we are open to any feedback you may offer on issues that you find.

Our Efforts to Achieve Accessibility

We are following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 as our guiding principle for determining accessibility. These are internationally agreed-upon standards that cover a wide range of recommendations and best practices for making content useable. We are currently checking our pages, posts, and functionality on our website against these standards and fix any issues we find. As we add new pages, posts, and functionality to our website, all designs, code, and content entry practices are checked against these standards.

Website accessibility is an ongoing process. We continually test content and features for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance and remediate any issues to ensure we meet or exceed the standards. Testing of our website is performed by our team members using industry-standard tools such as the Accessibility Checker WordPress Plugin, WP Accessibility Features Plugin, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only navigation techniques, and Flesch-Kincaid readability tests.

Please note we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third party websites to which we may link.

Accessibility Features On Our Website

The following is a list of items we have included in our website to improve its accessibility:

  • Accessibility toolbar with display settings for high contrast mode (Contrast button) and text size enlarging (Font size button).
  • Content summary for posts and pages where needed.
  • Label and icon to links with target="_blank" informing users they will open a new tab/window.
  • We use an accessibility-ready theme that provides support for skip links, site language, continue reading text and standard form labels .
