Northern Beacon Humanitarian Foundation is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards to ensure our website is inclusive and usable by all visitors.
Our Commitment to Web Accessibility
Web accessibility allows individuals with disabilities to browse and interact with a website with the same or similar ease and enjoyment as other users. This is achieved through the use of assistive technologies, accessible design practices, and compatibility with common operating systems and browsers.
Accessibility Standards
We strive to ensure that our website conforms to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, at the AA conformance level.
Our ongoing accessibility efforts include adapting website content and functionality to support assistive technologies such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, and other accessibility tools.

As part of our commitment, we have taken steps to improve accessibility, including:
-
Defining clear and consistent heading structures across pages
-
Ensuring logical content order and readable layouts
-
Adding alternative text to images where appropriate
-
Maintaining sufficient color contrast between text and backgrounds
-
Supporting keyboard navigation
-
Reducing unnecessary motion or animation

Ensuring videos, audio, and downloadable files are accessible where possible
-
Setting the primary language of the website
We continue to review and improve accessibility as the website evolves.
Partial Compliance Due to Third-Party Content
Some areas of this website may rely on third-party platforms or embedded content that is not fully under our control. While we strive to work with accessible providers, we cannot guarantee full accessibility of such content. These elements may result in partial compliance with accessibility standards.

Where physical locations are used for programs or services, we strive to ensure reasonable accessibility accommodations are in place. Specific accessibility arrangements may vary by location.
