Accessibility Statement

Last updated: November 2, 2026

Our Commitment to Accessibility

At WEAVE, we believe everyone deserves equal access to information, resources, and opportunities to connect with their community.

We are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming online environment where people of all abilities, backgrounds, and experiences can access the information they need.

We recognize that accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are dedicated to identifying and addressing barriers to participation wherever possible.

Accessibility Standards

Our goal is to make www.weavebc.ca accessible in accordance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, an internationally recognized standard for digital accessibility.

These guidelines help make websites more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including visual, hearing, physical, cognitive, and neurological disabilities.

Our website has not yet undergone a complete accessibility assessment, so we cannot currently confirm full conformance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA.

We are committed to improving accessibility as our website continues to develop.

Our Approach to Accessibility

We aim to make our website easy to navigate, understand, and use by prioritizing:

  • Clear communication: Writing in plain, accessible language with descriptive headings and an easy-to-follow structure.

  • Readable design: Using legible typography, appropriate colour contrast, and uncluttered layouts.

  • Keyboard accessibility: Working toward ensuring that website features can be accessed without a mouse.

  • Assistive technology compatibility: Working toward making website content usable with screen readers and other assistive technologies.

  • Accessible images and media: Providing meaningful text alternatives for informative images and accessible formats for multimedia content where possible.

  • Responsive design: Creating a consistent and usable experience across desktop computers, tablets, and mobile devices.

Ongoing Improvements

Accessibility is an important consideration in how we develop and maintain our website.

As we continue to improve our online presence, we aim to review content, identify potential barriers, and make adjustments that support a more inclusive experience.

Some website features, documents, or third-party content may not yet meet all accessibility standards. We welcome feedback that helps us identify these barriers and prioritize improvements.

We understand that everyone accesses information differently.

If you experience difficulty accessing information on our website, or require content in an alternative format, we encourage you to contact us.

Accessibility at Our Events

WEAVE is committed to fostering welcoming and inclusive community events.

We recognize that participation looks different for everyone and encourage attendees to reach out with questions about accessibility or accommodation needs.

Where possible, we will share relevant accessibility information in advance to help participants make informed decisions about attending.

We strive to create spaces where everyone feels respected, supported, and included.
