Accessibility Statement
Effective August 19, 2026
Our Commitment
Many of the families who visit this site are caring for an older adult — and may themselves be older, or living with a visual or motor impairment. Building a site that's genuinely usable by that audience isn't a compliance checkbox for us, it's the point. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, as our standard.
What We've Built In
- Body text is never smaller than 15–16px anywhere on the site — a deliberate rule, not a default, because small type is one of the most common barriers for our own audience
- Keyboard-navigable menus, forms, and buttons, with a visible focus state
- A "skip to main content" link at the top of every page
- Descriptive alt text on meaningful images
- Color combinations checked for sufficient contrast
- Motion and scroll animations are disabled automatically if your device is set to reduce motion
Known Limitations
Accessibility is ongoing work, not a one-time fix. Two areas we know deserve continued attention:
- A small number of photos and videos on the site are still placeholders awaiting final content from our team — once real media is in place, each will get accessible alt text or captions at the same time
- Embedded third-party tools (like the office location map) follow their provider's own accessibility standards, which we don't control directly
Feedback
If you run into anything on this site that's hard to use because of a disability, please tell us — we want to fix it. Contact us at (860) 829-0208 or info@homecare4u.com, and we'll do our best to respond within a few business days.
