Our Commitment

At STREET RESCUE, we are committed to ensuring digital accessibility for everyone. We believe that every visitor — regardless of ability — should be able to easily navigate, engage with, and participate in our mission to help pets and people in need. Our goal is to make our website, videos, and online resources accessible and inclusive in alignment with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

​

What We’re Doing

We are continually improving the user experience for all visitors by:

• Designing our website with accessibility-first principles in mind.

• Using clear, descriptive headings, readable text, and consistent navigation.

• Providing alt text for all essential images, including rescue stories, pets, and volunteers.

• Ensuring sufficient color contrast and scalable text for readability.

• Captioning or subtitling all new videos published on our YouTube channel @StreetRescueTV.

• Maintaining keyboard navigability across pages and forms.

• Conducting periodic accessibility audits and updates in collaboration with our web and media partners.

• ​

Ongoing Efforts

We recognize that accessibility is an ongoing process. Our team regularly reviews new content, design changes, and plugins to maintain compliance and user-friendliness. We also train contributors and volunteers who upload content to follow accessibility standards, especially for user-submitted stories, photos, and videos.

​

Third-Party Content

Our website may include embedded content such as social media feeds, YouTube videos, or maps that are not fully controlled by STREET RESCUE. We encourage all third-party providers to maintain accessibility compliance, and we continuously monitor integrations to minimize barriers for users.
