Accessibility

Effective Date: August 11, 2025

At ChangeLondon, we believe every Londoner should have an equal opportunity to participate in civic engagement, regardless of ability. We are committed to making our website (https://changelondon.ca) accessible, inclusive, and easy to use for all community members.

1. Our Commitment

  • We aim to comply with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.

  • We regularly test our website to identify and fix barriers to accessibility.

  • We welcome feedback from users to help us improve.

2. Accessibility Features

The ChangeLondon website includes features designed to support accessibility, such as:

  • Keyboard navigation: The site can be used without a mouse.

  • Screen reader compatibility: Content is structured with headings, labels, and alternative text for images.

  • High contrast readability: Colors and fonts are chosen to improve visibility.

  • Resizable text: Users can zoom in and out without losing functionality.

  • Simple layout: Clear menus, organized petitions, and easy-to-read text.

3. Areas We Are Improving

While we strive for full accessibility, some areas may still require work, including:

  • Third-party tools (e.g., social media login, embedded content) may not fully meet accessibility standards.

  • Older documents or files may not yet be fully optimized.

  • Some images may still need improved alternative text.

We are actively addressing these issues and will continue to make updates.

4. Ongoing Efforts

  • Training: Volunteers and contributors are educated on creating accessible content.

  • Monitoring: Accessibility is regularly reviewed during updates and new petition launches.

  • Technology upgrades: As the platform grows, we will implement more assistive technologies.
