The Bucks County Blog is committed to making our website usable for everyone in our community, including people with disabilities. We want every reader to be able to find local news, events, and stories without barriers.
What We’re Doing
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. In practice, that means we work toward:
- Clear, readable text with strong color contrast
- Descriptive alt text on images so screen readers can describe them
- Keyboard-friendly navigation that doesn’t require a mouse
- Headings and structure that make pages easy to scan and navigate
- Interactive features, like our calendar and weather tools, that degrade gracefully if a feed is unavailable
Ongoing Work
Accessibility isn’t a one-time fix. As we add new pages and features, we review them for usability and correct issues as we find them. Some older posts or embedded third-party content may not yet meet every standard, and we’re improving those over time.
Tell Us When Something’s Wrong
If you run into a page, image, or feature that’s hard to use, we want to hear about it. Your feedback helps us fix real problems faster than any checklist can.
Found an accessibility barrier? Email sean@mainstreetmakes.com with the page address and a short description of the problem. We’ll do our best to respond promptly and make it right.
