Accessibility Statement
Last updated June 14, 2026
Christy Young is committed to making this website accessible to as many people as possible, including those who use assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and keyboard-only navigation.
Conformance status
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. These guidelines, published by the World Wide Web Consortium, explain how to make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of abilities. Accessibility is an ongoing effort, and we continue to test and improve the site.
Measures we take
To support accessibility, this website is built with:
- Semantic HTML and a clear, consistent heading structure on every page.
- A "Skip to content" link so keyboard users can bypass the navigation.
- Visible focus outlines so you can always see where you are on the page.
- Full keyboard operation for the menu, controls, and forms.
- Text and interface colors checked to meet the WCAG AA contrast ratio.
- Descriptive alternative text for meaningful images.
- Labels and clear error guidance on form fields.
- Respect for the "reduce motion" setting in your operating system, which turns off non-essential animation.
- A responsive layout that adapts to phones, tablets, and desktops, and supports browser zoom.
We do not use an accessibility overlay or widget. Accessibility is built into the site's own markup, which is the approach recommended by accessibility experts and regulators.
Known limitations
Some content provided by third parties, such as an embedded map or video, may not fully meet our accessibility standards because it is outside our direct control. If you have trouble with any third-party feature, our email address is always available as a plain-text alternative.
Compatibility
This site is designed to work with current versions of major browsers, including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge, together with the assistive technologies commonly used on those platforms. Using the most recent versions gives the best experience.
