Our Accessibility Statement
This statement was last updated on July 18, 2026.
At Hope of Heaven for Teens, we are committed to making our website accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that every human was made in the image of God and should have access to resources that help them connect with Him at a deeper level.
We want to remove any barriers that make visiting this website difficult for someone with a disability. The set of actions we take addressing barrier prevention is called web accessibility.
Current Accessibility Adjustments on This Site
As of July 2026, we have focused on addressing the following barriers:
-
Making sure all images have alternative text linked to them that describe the image to a person using a screen reader because of a visual impairment
-
Making sure the text-to background contrast on all webpages is distinct enough so that anyone with visual complications can still read all displayed text
-
Making sure all font sizes are large enough on all webpages for someone with moderate visual complications to read all displayed text (and ensuring that the website is compatible with zoom-in, zoom 100%, and zoom out keyboard commands on all functioning computer devices for someone who would benefit from a different scale than the default)
-
Not utilizing moving or flashing text and images to prevent seizures, a stressful visiting experience, or someone from not catching important context
-
Enabling compatibility with vertical page navigation via keyboard (using arrows)
-
Ensuring that all text and images are organized in a way that can be navigated using multiple methods (As well as having a page menu to help a visitor know where they are and ensure easy access to vital pages.)
-
Ensuring that a visitor can highlight a block of text to have a more focused reading experience, if desired
-
Clearly explained links so that a visitor does not find themselves suddenly leaving the site
-
All buttons are large enough to click on without needing a fine motor gesture
-
On compatible devices, website navigation and text inputs can be done by touch.
-
In initial development, the primary language was set to English so that a compatible device could translate accordingly.
-
Giving reasonably detailed submission instructions (with the option to email for more clarification) for all submission forms operating directly on the site (‘Contact’ and ‘Technology Issue’) and through Google Forms (‘Artwork’, ‘Article’, ‘Resource’, and ‘Testimony’) as well as correcting submissions before finalizing.
In summary, we are committed to adhering to the WCAG 2.0 Guidelines and making the site compatible with assistive technologies such as screen readers and keyboard navigation.
