Accessibility Statement

Effective Date: July 17, 2025

At V-A and Associates, we are committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all individuals, regardless of ability. We believe every visitor should be able to engage with our digital content, resources, and services without barriers.
 
 
What Web Accessibility Means
 
Web accessibility ensures that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with websites effectively. This includes individuals who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, voice recognition tools, screen magnifiers, and alternative input devices. Our goal is to provide an inclusive and equitable user experience for all.
 
 
Our Accessibility Commitment
 
This website is built on the Wix platform and is actively maintained in alignment with:
 

  • WCAG 2.1 Level AA (with ongoing efforts toward WCAG 2.2)

  • ADA Title III (U.S. law)

  • International standards such as EN 301 549 (EU) and AODA (Canada), where applicable

 
Accessibility is an ongoing process, and we are committed to continual improvement to ensure our site remains inclusive and user-friendly.
 
 
Accessibility Features Implemented
 
We have implemented the following measures on our site:
 

  • Regular accessibility audits using tools such as Wix Accessibility Wizard and WAVE

  • Logical page structures and clear heading hierarchy
