Accessibility

We are committed to improving the accessibility and usability of our website and online services.

We know health care information can be complex. Our goal is to present information in clear, simple ways so you can find and understand what you need. We are actively working to align our website with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA. These international standards help make websites easier for people with disabilities to use. While we have more work to do to improve accessibility across all pages, we are actively working to identify and address barriers within the site experience.

We are working to:

  • Provide text descriptions for images

  • Include captions for videos

  • Make the website easier to use with a keyboard (no mouse required)

  • Use clear headings and organize information so its easy to read

  • Improve color contrast so text is easier to read

  • Improve content that is used throughout the site, such as PDFs and similar files, so they meet standards

  • Offer content in multiple formats when possible

Our work to improve accessibility and usability is ongoing. If you have trouble accessing any part of our website or have suggestions for improvement, we want to hear from you. Please contact us if you have any concerns regarding our accessibility. Your feedback helps us improve access for everyone.
