1. Our Commitment to Accessibility
Texas Valor Project is committed to ensuring that our website, texasvalorproject.org, is accessible to all people, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that everyone who visits our site, regardless of ability, deserves a full and equal experience.
Our mission centers on serving veterans, first responders, and their families. Many of the individuals we serve may live with service-related disabilities. Accessibility is not just a compliance matter for us, it is a core expression of our respect and commitment to those we honor.

2. Conformance Status
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities, including those with visual, auditory, physical, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.
We are actively working toward full conformance and continuously review and improve our website to address accessibility barriers. Where full conformance has not yet been achieved, we are committed to finding reasonable alternatives.

3. Technical Specifications
Accessibility of our website relies on the following technologies:
HTML5
CSS3
JavaScript
WAI-ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications)
Our website has been developed with semantic HTML structure, appropriate use of heading levels, text alternatives for non-text content, keyboard navigability, and sufficient color contrast to support readability.

4. Accessibility Features
We have implemented the following accessibility features on our website:
Alternative text (alt text) for all meaningful images
Clear and consistent navigation structures
Keyboard-accessible menus, buttons, and forms
Descriptive link text that makes sense out of context
Sufficient color contrast between text and backgrounds
Resizable text that does not break page layout

Certain video content that may not yet have full captions or transcripts
We are committed to addressing these limitations as quickly as possible. If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please let us know and we will make every effort to provide the information or functionality you need through an alternative method.
