Vivimos Juntxs, Comemos Juntxs wants everyone to be able to use this website, including people with disabilities, people using assistive technology and people with slow connections or older devices.

Our standard

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA, the standard referenced by the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) and the Accessible Canada Act.

What we have done

  • Text uses Atkinson Hyperlegible, a typeface designed for readers with low vision, and colours meet AA contrast ratios.
  • Every page can be used with a keyboard, with a visible focus outline and a "skip to content" link.
  • The flying butterflies are decorative, can be paused with a button, and stop automatically if your device is set to reduce motion.
  • Images have text alternatives, and the events calendar is also available as a simple list.
  • The site works on phones, tablets and computers, and with browser zoom up to 400%.
  • Content is available in more than one language.
  • Our in-person community meals and workshops are held in wheelchair-accessible spaces.
