Wilmington Mental Health is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

Wilmington Mental Health takes the following measures to ensure accessibility of Accessibility Notice:

Include accessibility as part of our mission statement.

Include accessibility throughout our internal policies.

Assign clear accessibility targets and responsibilities.

Navigation of menus is consistent throughout the site

Text is presented with image links and alternative access

Site structure is logically arranged to assist screen readers

Site dynamically adjust to fit any screen size

Compatibility with commonly used browsers, including Internet Explorer/Edge, Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome.

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Accessibility Notice is fully conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Fully conformant means that the content fully conforms to the accessibility standard without any exceptions.

Although our goal is WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance, we have also applied some Level AAA Success Criteria: Images of text are only used for decorative purposes. Re-authentication after a session expires does not cause loss of data. Some videos have sign language interpretation.

Accessibility of Accessibility Notice relies on the following technologies to work with the web browser and any assistive technologies or plugins installed on your computer:

HTML

CSS

These technologies are relied upon for conformance with the accessibility standards used.

Please contact us at (910) 777-55 if you use assistive technology and the format of this website interferes with your ability to access information. We may ask about the preferred format in which you wish to receive the material and your contact information. You can also contact us by phone through the Federal Information Relay Service at 1-800-877-8339 for TTY/Voice communication.
