Accessibility Statement
Chapter Partner’s commitment to making ChapterPartner.com usable by as many people as reasonably possible.
Statement date: August 23, 2026 • Last reviewed: August 23, 2026
Accessibility is an ongoing part of website quality.
We aim to design, develop, write, and maintain this website in alignment with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA. This is a target and ongoing practice, not a claim that every page or third-party feature is permanently free of barriers.
Perceivable • Operable • Understandable • Robust
Conformance status
WCAG defines requirements for improving access for people with a wide range of disabilities. Chapter Partner targets WCAG 2.2 Level AA for the public marketing website.
Audit status must be confirmed: Do not claim full or partial conformance until representative production pages, forms, navigation, responsive states, consent controls, and third-party embeds have been tested. Replace this notice with the verified status and audit date before publication.
Measures supporting accessibility
Our intended practices include:
- Semantic headings, landmarks, lists, labels, and controls.
- Keyboard-operable navigation and interactive features.
- Visible focus indicators and logical focus order.
- Color contrast and information not conveyed by color alone.
- Responsive layouts and support for text enlargement and reflow.
- Alternative text for meaningful images and appropriate treatment of decorative visuals.
- Form labels, instructions, required-field identification, and understandable errors.
- Descriptive page titles, links, and headings.
- Reduced-motion preferences where motion is used.
- Accessibility checks during design, development, content entry, and maintenance.
Known limitations
Potential limitations may include third-party scheduling, consent, video, social, map, payment, analytics, or form components that Chapter Partner does not fully control; older documents or media; and newly published content awaiting review.
Before publication, replace this general statement with specific verified limitations, affected pages or features, available alternatives, and planned remediation. Do not state “no known issues” without a current production assessment.
Compatibility
The website is intended to work with current versions of major browsers and common assistive technologies using supported operating systems. Very old browsers, unsupported software, disabled essential browser capabilities, or third-party components may provide a reduced experience.
Production testing should document the browser, operating-system, screen-reader, keyboard, zoom, reflow, and mobile combinations actually assessed.
Accessibility feedback and assistance
If you encounter a barrier, need content in another format, or cannot complete a task, use the Contact page and identify the request as “Accessibility.” Include:
- The page URL or feature.
- What you were trying to do.
- A description of the problem.
- Your browser, device, or assistive technology if you are comfortable sharing it.
- The format or assistance that would help.
Do not include passwords, payment information, private member data, or unnecessary medical information. We will review the request and communicate an appropriate next step. A formal response target should be inserted only after the business has adopted and can meet one.
Assessment approach
Accessibility evaluation may combine automated testing, keyboard review, zoom and reflow checks, color and contrast review, form testing, code inspection, and assistive-technology testing. Automated tools alone cannot establish conformance.
Automated checks
Useful for detecting certain code, label, contrast, and structural issues.
Manual review
Keyboard, focus, content, interaction, responsive, and error-state evaluation.
User feedback
Real barriers reported by visitors inform prioritization and remediation.
Ongoing improvement
Accessibility can change when content, Joomla extensions, templates, embeds, consent tools, forms, or integrations change. We intend to review reported barriers, prioritize issues by impact, include accessibility in future changes, and update this statement when the verified status materially changes.
Third-party and client websites
This statement applies to ChapterPartner.com. It does not assert conformance for client chapter websites, association platforms, or third-party services linked or embedded here. Each organization is responsible for its own accessibility obligations and statements.
Legal context
This voluntary statement describes our intended accessibility practice and does not waive, expand, or replace rights or obligations under applicable law. Legal requirements vary by organization and jurisdiction.
