General

YWCA of the City of New York strives to ensure that our web services are accessible to people with disabilities. We have invested resources to help ensure that our website, ywcanyc.org, is made easier to use and more accessible, with the strong belief that every person has the right to live with dignity, equality, comfort and independence.

Accessibility on ywcanyc.org

We use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1, Level AA) as our standard and review pages as we add and update content.

Using your own accessibility tools

Most browsers and devices include built-in features that make websites easier to use, such as zoom and text resizing, high-contrast modes, and screen readers. ywcanyc.org is built to work with these tools.

Disclaimer

ywcanyc.org continues efforts to improve the accessibility of its site and services with the belief that it is our collective moral obligation to allow seamless, accessible and unhindered use also for those of us with disabilities.

Despite our efforts to make all pages and content on ywcanyc.org fully accessible, some content may not have yet been fully adapted to the strictest accessibility standards. This may be a result of not having found or identified the most appropriate technological solution.
