Clarity, care, and choice

Accessibility

Effective and last updated October 24, 2026

We aim to make Where Hope Holds readable and usable with a keyboard, screen readers, text enlargement, and mobile devices. Pages use labeled form controls, headings, skip links, visible focus, and native audio controls. We are working toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA; this is an accessibility goal, not a certification that every feature has been independently audited.

Known limits and alternatives

Personal photo descriptions depend on captions supplied by the member. Audio uploads do not have automatic transcripts; use the recording’s notes field to keep a written version if you have one. External obituary pages and images are controlled by their publishers. Download originals for use in a player or tool that better meets your needs.

Ask for assistance

Use the contact form and select “Accessibility assistance.” Tell us which page or feature caused difficulty, the device or assistive technology if helpful, and a preferred way to respond. Do not include private memories or medical details. The operator will review the request and discuss a reasonable accessible alternative.
