Accessibility Statement

A website everyone can use

A family looking for help should never be stopped by a website, a language, or a building.

This website

How we build for access

  • Designed against WCAG 2.1 Level AA as our working standard
  • Full keyboard navigation, including the Quick Exit control
  • Visible focus indicators on every interactive element
  • Color contrast that meets or exceeds AA for text and controls
  • Descriptive alternative text on meaningful images
  • Semantic headings and landmarks for screen reader navigation
  • Text that reflows and remains readable at 200% zoom and on small screens
  • Forms with properly associated labels and clear error messaging

Language access

English and Spanish

All services at Deirdre's House are delivered in English and Spanish by bilingual staff. Interpretation for other languages is arranged at no cost to the family. Key website content is provided in both languages.

Our facility

Accessibility in the building

Our facility offers accessible parking and entry. If you need a specific accommodation for an appointment, a tour, or a training, whether mobility, sensory, communication, or otherwise, tell us in advance and we will arrange it. There is no charge and no explanation required.
