Accessibility

Last updated: August 2026

The Prison Humanity Project is committed to making this website as usable as possible for everyone, including people who use assistive technologies or have disabilities. This page describes what we have done and how to report problems.

What we have done

We have made the following efforts to improve accessibility on this site:

  • Semantic HTML elements are used throughout — headings follow a logical order, navigation landmarks are labeled, and form inputs have associated labels.
  • All interactive elements — links, buttons, and form controls — are keyboard-operable and have visible focus indicators.
  • Images include descriptive alt text. Decorative images use empty alt attributes.
  • Text and background colors are chosen to meet or exceed a 4.5:1 contrast ratio for normal text.
  • The site is designed to be usable at narrow phone widths and does not require horizontal scrolling.
  • The mobile navigation menu is operable by keyboard and announces its open/closed state to screen readers.

Known limitations

We are a small project and this site is actively being improved. Some areas may not yet meet all accessibility best practices. We are not currently certified against any specific standard, and we do not claim full WCAG 2.1 conformance. We are working toward it.

Report an issue

If you encounter a barrier on this site — a page that is difficult to navigate, a form that is hard to use, or content that is not accessible to you — please let us know. Use the contact form and describe the problem as specifically as you can, including the page you were on and what you were trying to do. We will do our best to address it.
