Website Accessibility Statement

Junior Achievement of South Central PA (JASCPA) cares about the visitors to our websites and is committed to making its websites accessible to persons with disabilities, including visual, hearing, and other sensory impairments.  If you use assistive technology and the format or content of any material on our websites interferes with your ability to access information, please contact Allison Kierce at 717-843-8028.  To enable us to respond in a manner most helpful to you, please indicate the nature of your accessibility problem, the preferred format in which to receive the material, the webpage of the requested material, and your contact information.

We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of our websites, and in doing so, we strive to meet or exceed Level AA of the World Wide Web Consortium (“W3C”) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (the “WCAG Standards”) and bring the JASCPA websites into conformance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.  We have designed our websites with the following accessibility guidelines in mind:

  • The standard font used throughout the site has been chosen to be easily legible.

  • Wherever possible, we use live text instead of graphics to reduce the download time of pages and increase your control.

  • Our pages are designed to display without horizontal scrollbars when they are viewed at a screen resolution of 1024x768 pixels.

  • No information is exclusively conveyed using color.  This doesn't mean that colors are not used to organize information; instead, it means there are also other, non-color dependent ways of doing this.

  • All images and hyperlinks, where appropriate, have an alternative text attribute.  This means when an image or hyperlink is conveying important information its content is described with an alternative text.

  • Where applicable, videos and audio content include closed captioning and text transcripts.

Our websites are updated regularly, so accessibility and usability issues may sometimes arise in certain areas of our websites for those visitors using assistive technologies and devices.  We continue to work hard and invest significant resources to review and update the functionality of those websites to meet the WCAG Standards.

Our efforts are ongoing, and we continue to develop technological solutions to maximize the accessibility of our websites.  Should you experience any difficulty in accessing our pages please contact us by phone at 717-843-8028 or by emailing us at info@jascpa.org.  Please be sure to specify the webpage and provide us with any other information you think may help us identify the issue.  Please also provide us with your contact information and let us know how we can best offer you further assistance.
