Everyday Forkful is committed to making this website accessible to as many people as possible, regardless of ability or the tools they use to browse the web. Our target standard is WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
What We Do to Support Accessibility
- All images include descriptive alt text.
- Color contrast ratios meet or exceed the WCAG 2.1 AA minimum of 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text.
- The site can be navigated using a keyboard alone. Focus states are visible.
- Headings follow a logical hierarchy, with a single H1 per page and nested subheadings in order.
- Links are descriptive. We avoid link text like “click here” or “read more” without context.
- Form inputs are labeled with visible labels and associated programmatically.
- Video content, if any, includes captions.
- We do not use motion or animations that cannot be disabled by the browser’s reduced-motion preference.
Known Limitations
We review the site regularly, but some content may not yet meet every WCAG 2.1 AA criterion. Third-party embeds, such as ads served by external networks, are outside our direct control. We work to minimize accessibility barriers in content we control directly and flag issues in third-party content when we identify them.
Assistive Technology Tested
We test the site with VoiceOver on macOS and iOS and review markup for compatibility with NVDA on Windows. We also use axe-core for automated checks on key page templates. Automated checks catch a subset of issues. Manual review is part of our process for new page templates.
Review Cadence
We review accessibility as part of our standard editorial process when adding new page templates or making structural design changes. We also review when an accessibility issue is reported to us.
Reporting an Issue
If you encounter an accessibility barrier on this site, we want to know about it. Use the Contact page to describe what you were trying to do and what got in the way. Please include the URL of the page and the assistive technology or browser you were using if you know it. We aim to respond within five business days and to address confirmed barriers as quickly as possible.
