Accessibility Statement
Effective Date: 29 June 2026
Last Updated: 22 August 2026
The Stained Glass Project (“SGP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to providing a website and online experience that is accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities.
We believe every person should have meaningful access to information about our organization, programs, service opportunities, events, volunteer opportunities, and other resources. Accessibility is an ongoing responsibility, and we are committed to identifying and addressing barriers that may interfere with access to our website or digital content.
I. Our Commitment to Accessibility
The Stained Glass Project strives to design, develop, and maintain its website in accordance with generally recognized accessibility standards and best practices.
Our goal is to provide a website that is:
-
Perceivable
-
Operable
-
Understandable
-
Robust
-
Navigable using a keyboard
-
Compatible, where reasonably possible, with assistive technologies
-
Presented with sufficient color contrast and readable typography
-
Structured using meaningful headings, labels, and page organization
-
Supported by alternative text for meaningful images where appropriate
SGP endeavors to follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (“WCAG”) 2.1, Level AA as a recognized framework for improving digital accessibility.
II. Ongoing Accessibility Efforts
Accessibility is an ongoing process rather than a one-time project.
SGP may periodically review and update its website to improve accessibility, usability, compatibility, and performance. These efforts may include reviewing page structure, navigation, forms, images, links, color contrast, keyboard functionality, text readability, and compatibility with commonly used assistive technologies.
As our website grows and new content, programs, forms, photographs, videos, or other digital materials are added, we will make reasonable efforts to incorporate accessibility considerations into those updates.
III. Website Features
Where reasonably practicable, SGP seeks to incorporate accessibility features that may include:
-
Logical heading structures
-
Descriptive page titles
-
Alternative text for meaningful images
-
Clearly identifiable links and buttons
-
Keyboard-accessible navigation
-
Labels and instructions for website forms
-
Sufficient contrast between text and backgrounds
-
Readable font sizes and spacing
-
Responsive layouts for different screen sizes and devices
-
Content presented in a clear and understandable manner
Some decorative images or design elements may not contain alternative text when they do not communicate information necessary to understand the content of the page.
IV. Forms and Online Services
SGP may use online forms for inquiries, program interest, volunteer interest, contact requests, donations, or other organizational purposes.
We endeavor to make forms understandable and accessible by providing appropriate labels, instructions, field descriptions, and error information where supported by the website platform.
If you experience difficulty completing an online form because of a disability or accessibility barrier, please contact us. We will make reasonable efforts to provide an alternative method for submitting the requested information.
V. Third-Party Content and Services
Certain portions of our website may contain links to, embed content from, or rely upon services provided by third parties.
Examples may include:
-
Zeffy or other donation-processing platforms
-
Social-media platforms
-
Video-hosting services
-
Mapping services
-
Event-registration systems
-
Website plugins
-
Embedded forms
-
Other external websites or digital services
SGP does not control the accessibility of independent third-party platforms and cannot guarantee that all third-party content or services conform to the same accessibility standards we seek to maintain.
If you encounter an accessibility issue involving a third-party service accessed through our website, we encourage you to notify us so that we can determine whether an alternative means of access is reasonably available.
VI. Alternative Access to Information
If any information, document, form, program description, event information, or other content on our website is inaccessible to you because of a disability, please contact The Stained Glass Project.
Upon request, we will make reasonable efforts to provide the information in an alternative format or through another method that provides substantially equivalent access.
The availability and nature of an alternative format may depend upon the type of content requested, available technology, and other relevant circumstances.
VII. Accessibility Feedback and Assistance
We welcome feedback regarding the accessibility of our website.
If you experience difficulty accessing any portion of the website, encounter an accessibility barrier, or have suggestions concerning accessibility, please contact us and provide as much information as reasonably possible, including:
-
The webpage or content involved
-
A description of the accessibility issue
-
The device or browser being used, if relevant
-
The assistive technology being used, if applicable
-
Your preferred method of contact
Providing this information may help us identify and address the issue more effectively.
VIII. Response to Accessibility Concerns
SGP takes accessibility concerns seriously.
When an accessibility issue is brought to our attention, we will make reasonable efforts to review the concern, determine whether corrective action or an alternative method of access is appropriate, and respond within a reasonable period of time.
The time necessary to address an accessibility issue may vary depending upon the nature and complexity of the concern, the technology involved, and whether the issue relates to content or services controlled by a third party.
IX. No Guarantee of Universal Compatibility
Although SGP strives to improve the accessibility of its website, variations among browsers, devices, operating systems, assistive technologies, website platforms, and third-party services may affect how content is displayed or accessed.
Accordingly, SGP cannot guarantee that every portion of the website will function perfectly with every possible combination of hardware, software, browser, or assistive technology.
Our commitment is to make reasonable and continuing efforts to identify barriers and improve accessibility whenever practicable.
X. Updates to This Accessibility Statement
SGP may revise this Accessibility Statement periodically to reflect changes in our website, technology, accessibility practices, standards, or organizational operations.
The most current version will be posted on this website and identified by the “Last Updated” date above.
