At Blume Therapy Center, located in Redondo Beach, California, we are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming digital environment for individuals of all abilities. Our goal is to ensure that everyone—regardless of visual, auditory, cognitive, or motor challenges—can access the information, services, and resources available on our website.
We strive to design and maintain our website in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA standards, as established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines outline best practices to make digital content more accessible to a wider range of people with disabilities.
Website Accessibility Features
To support a positive user experience for all visitors, our website incorporates the following accessibility features:
- Alternative Text for Images: All meaningful images include descriptive “ALT” text, allowing screen readers to convey visual content to users.
- Keyboard Navigation: Users can navigate the site using a keyboard alone, without the need for a mouse.
- Logical and Consistent Structure: Headings, navigation menus, and content follow a clear and predictable structure to enhance screen reader compatibility.
- Responsive Design: The website adjusts seamlessly across devices and screen sizes for optimal readability and navigation.
- Contrast and Readability: We use high-contrast text and legible font styles to support users with low vision.
- Browser Compatibility: Our website is optimized to function across modern browsers, including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Microsoft Edge.
Accessibility Compliance Principles
We design with the following four WCAG principles in mind:
- Perceivable: Content is presented in a way that can be perceived by all users, including alternatives for non-text elements and adaptable layouts.
- Operable: The interface is fully navigable using assistive technologies or keyboard-only input.
- Understandable: Information is clear and consistent across the site, helping users avoid and correct errors.
- Robust: The website is compatible with a range of current and future assistive technologies.
