Accessibility Statement

We at Thrive Point Institute are working to make our site, Thrivepointinstitute.org, accessible to people with disabilities.

What web accessibility is

An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved with the capabilities of the system on which the site is operating, and through assistive technologies.

Accessibility adjustments on this site

We have adapted this site in accordance with WCAG 2.1 guidelines and have made the site accessible to the level of AA. This site's contents have been adapted to work with assistive technologies, such as screen readers and keyboard use.

  • As part of this effort, we have also:

  • Improved color contrast and font readability

  • Provided alternative text (alt text) for all meaningful images

  • Structured content using accessible headings and HTML elements

  • Enabled keyboard navigation for interactive features

  • Reviewed layout and spacing for clarity across screen sizes and devices

Requests, issues, and suggestions

ThrivePoint Institute is committed to ensuring that all individuals, regardless of ability, have full and equal access to our website, programs, and services. We strive to meet the accessibility needs of every student, visitor, and community member in accordance with federal standards under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), as well as the Texas Government Code Chapter 2054, Subchapter M, which requires accessibility for state-developed websites and services.

 

Our Commitment

​

We are continually working to improve the user experience for everyone who visits our website and participates in ThrivePoint programming. We aim to ensure that individuals with disabilities can:

  • Navigate our website with screen readers or other assistive technology

  • Understand all text content using clear and readable language

  • Participate in in-person and online programs with reasonable accommodations

  • Request alternative formats or auxiliary aids as needed

Web Accessibility Standards

These standards are designed to make digital content accessible for individuals with vision, hearing, mobility, and cognitive impairments.

​
