Accessibility Statement

Created on: May 19, 2025

At Help Promise, we’re dedicated to making our website welcoming and usable for everyone. An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to enjoy the site with the same or similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. We strive to ensure that all individuals, regardless of ability, can access the information and resources we provide.

We’re committed to continually improving the accessibility of our digital spaces to align with best practices and recognized accessibility standards. This includes efforts to minimize motion where possible to support users with motion sensitivity.

While we are continually working toward full compliance with recognized accessibility standards (like WCAG 2.1), we understand that accessibility is an ongoing effort.

To ensure that our website is usable for everyone, we use the Wix Accessibility Wizard and the Free Color Contrast checker accessibility tool from AudioEye.com. If you find anything on our site difficult to use or have suggestions for improvement, please reach out. We value your feedback and are committed to making our site better for all.
