Website Accessibility Audit

Project details

What we need
  • A list of the common issues along with the prioritization of both severity and impact of the accessibility issues found
  • List of areas that do not meet the Section 508, ADA, WCAG 2.0 guidelines
  • Specific recommendations to improve product accessibility their priority level (low, medium, and high priority)
  • Estimated time needed to fix current compliance issues
Additional details

Our website is hosted on wordpress. We would like to revamp our website (www.sisterslead.org) to reflect our mission and goals and advice on how we can improve our website. We would like feedback on current 508, ADA, WCAG 2.0 guidelines, visual design, and other feature to reach targeted audience.

What we have in place
  • We currently have fully functioning website with clear goals, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have understanding of our target audience, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,212 , allowing us to allocate funds to other areas of our work that need to be funded.

Our purpose is to give voice and develop action strategies that address the experiences and realities of Women of Color and Communities of Color. This project will help uplift culturally specific services, bring awareness of sexual assault and other issues that affect people of color, and highlight SCESA. We want to make sure we are reaching all population who visit our website.
