Accessibility Statement
Last updated February 2026
Commitment to Accessibility
Competition Care Medical Fund is committed to providing a website that is accessible to people with disabilities. We believe that digital accessibility is essential to our mission of serving our community, and we are dedicated to making our website usable for everyone, including individuals with disabilities.
Standards and Guidelines
We strive to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines provide recommendations for making web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Our web development team works to implement these standards throughout the design and development of our website.
Accessibility Features
We have implemented the following accessibility features:
- Semantic HTML: We use proper heading hierarchies, semantic elements, and clear structure to ensure screen readers can correctly interpret our content.
- Color Contrast: Our color palette meets WCAG AA standards for contrast ratios to ensure readability for users with low vision.
- Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements (links, buttons, forms) are accessible via keyboard, and we maintain a clear focus indicator for keyboard users.
- Alternative Text: Images include descriptive alt text to provide context for users who cannot see them.
- Readable Fonts: We use clear, legible typefaces with appropriate sizing and spacing.
- Form Accessibility: All form fields are properly labeled and associated with their corresponding labels.
- Skip Links: Skip navigation links allow users to bypass repetitive content.
- Responsive Design: Our website is designed to work on multiple devices and screen sizes.
Assistive Technology Compatibility
Our website is designed to be compatible with common assistive technologies, including screen readers, speech recognition software, and browser extensions that enhance accessibility.
Third-Party Content
Some content on our website is embedded from third-party services (such as Jotform and Stripe). While we work to ensure these services are as accessible as possible, we cannot fully control the accessibility of content created by external providers. If you experience accessibility issues with embedded content, please let us know.
Known Limitations
We are aware of the following accessibility limitations and are working to address them:
- Jotform and Stripe embedded forms may have varying levels of accessibility. We recommend using direct contact methods if you experience difficulties with embedded forms.
- Some PDFs or downloadable documents may not be fully accessible; please contact us to request accessible versions.
