Accessibility Statement

At Border Loomers, we are committed to ensuring that our resources and workshops are accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We strive to create an inclusive environment where all members of our community can participate in our weaving initiatives.

This statement was last updated on July 29, 2026. We at Border Loomers are working to make our site accessible to people with disabilities.

What web accessibility is

An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to participate in our community programs and access our resources with ease, ensuring all feel welcome and engaged.

Accessibility adjustments on this site

We have adapted this site in accordance with WCAG 2.1 guidelines, targeting Level AA.

 

This site's contents have been adapted to work with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard navigation. As part of this effort, we have also:

  • Used accessibility evaluation tools to identify and rectify potential issues

  • Set the language of the site to English (with Spanish content offered where available, given our bilingual programming)

  • Organized content for clarity and navigation

  • Defined clear heading structures across all pages

  • Provided alternative text for images

  • Implemented color contrasts that meet accessibility standards

  • Reduced unnecessary motion on the site

  • Ensured videos and audio files are accessible with captions and transcripts where available

Declaration of partial compliance with the standard due to third-party content.

Some pages of the site include content managed by third parties, such as social media links, embedded donation platforms (GoFundMe), and embedded content. We declare partial compliance for these pages, which may affect accessibility.

Accessibility arrangements in the organization

Border Loomers currently operates through community workshops and partner sites (including schools) rather than a permanent physical location. As we establish our planned spaces in Naco, Sonora and Bisbee, Arizona, we are committed to ensuring accessible entrances, appropriate accommodations, and inclusive design. In the meantime, we work with our program partners to accommodate accessibility needs at workshop locations, and we offer program materials in multiple formats upon request to ensure everyone can participate.
