Accessibility Statement

This statement was last updated on June 2026

Hometown Strong is working to make our site www.htstrong.org accessible to people with disabilities.

What web accessibility is

Web accessibility means that websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them. This includes people with visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, and neurological disabilities. An accessible website ensures that everyone — regardless of ability — can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the content online. Hometown Strong is committed to making www.htstrong.org usable for all community members.

Accessibility adjustments on this site

We have made the following adjustments to improve accessibility on htstrong.org:

  • Alternative text is provided for meaningful images throughout the site.

  • Headings are structured logically to support screen reader navigation.

  • Navigation menus are keyboard-accessible using the Tab key.

  • Text and background colors are chosen to maintain sufficient contrast.

  • Content is written in clear language to support users with cognitive disabilities.

  • The site is built on Wix, which provides built-in accessibility tools and complies with applicable accessibility standards at the platform level.

Declaration of partial compliance with the standard due to third-party content 

Certain pages or features on www.htstrong.org incorporate third-party content or tools — including our donation processing system, Stripe, and embedded social media content — over which Hometown Strong has limited or no direct control. These components may not fully conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. We declare partial compliance with the accessibility standard for these areas, as their accessibility depends on the third-party providers responsible for them. We will continue to advocate for accessible solutions and update our implementation as better options become available.

Requests, issues, and suggestions

If you find an accessibility issue on the site, or if you require further assistance, you are welcome to contact us through the organization:
