Accessibility Statement

I acknowledge that some users may have visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, reduced motor function, and other types of disabilities or limitations. I am dedicated to creating an online environment that is accessible to as many users as possible and have therefore designed this site with equity in mind. I have consulted the National Center on Disability and Access to Education (NCDAE) for their guidance on how to create an equitable site. I have also used the WAVE Tool to help identify some areas of concern. After reviewing these resources, I have developed this site with the following considerations in mind:

  1. PDF download option. The projects on this site have been arranged as individual, downloadable document. This may help users who use screen readers or prefer a linear/condensed reading style. However, these documents include static screenshots of otherwise interactive charts.
  2. Heading arrangement. Each web page uses a hierarchical heading structure to help with readability, direction, and context.
  3. Color contrast. Black text is printed on a white background for enhanced visibility. When color is used as a background, the accompanying text is rendered appropriately.
  4. Not relying on color alone. The charts and diagrams on this site are captioned and their meaning expressed in written form. 
  5. Lowest common denominator file formats. Downloadable resources are presented in file formats that don't require proprietary software for access.
  6. Mobile optimization. The material on my site are accessible through a mobile browser, with the exception of some HTML-embedded charts. I am working to fix this.

While these basic principles have been deployed, there are still elements of this site that may prevent challenges for some users.

I welcome feedback on how I might improve access to this site. Use the "Contact" tab in the top right corner to reach out to me, or click here.
