Accessibility Statement

The Religious Sisters of Charity have endeavored to make this web site as accessible as possible. In order to pursue this goal, the site has been designed using XHTML and CSS, two elements of Web Standards that are the keystones of Web accessibility.

Valid CSS!

The pages of this site have been tested and validated by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) as validating and adhering to Web standards, using their online validation services. It validated as CSS level 2 to show that we have taken the care to create interoperable Web pages.

Accessibility to the Blind and Visually Impaired
This site should be easily readable by software programs that read Web pages aloud to the blind. We have done our best to ensure access to screen readers by using commonly-accepted techniques in the design of the page templates. No basic navigational aspects of this site use solely visual determinants.
On each page, an increased text size option has been provided for the main content type to make it more readable to those who find the default type size too small to read.

Accessibility to the Deaf and Hearing Impaired
No essential content of this site is contained in audio-only files. If audio content is provided for additional enrichment at a later date, where possible, we will provide a transcript or textual summary. Please note that transcription may not always be an option for some audio files.

Accessibility to the Cognitively Disabled
We have avoided the use of fast-moving, flickering or flashing content in this site.

If you have any comments or suggestions to improve the accessibility of this site, please let us know.
