SVA Alumni Society Digital Accessibility Statement

Our Policy & Commitment

At the SVA Alumni Society, we are committed to accessibility, diversity, and inclusion. As part of that commitment, we are making efforts to ensure that the SVA Alumni Society’s digital assets are accessible to all individuals, regardless of ability. In doing so, the SVA Alumni Society has a goal to comply with applicable accessibility standards included in the W3C’s WCAG 2.2 Level AA Success Criteria.

Digital Accessibility Statement

We are working to ensure our websites and online services are accessible for all and are committed to following the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and other applicable web accessibility laws.

To accomplish this, we have partnered with Level Access to leverage their digital accessibility platform and 25 years of experience to achieve and sustain conformance to accessibility standards.  Their digital accessibility platform is used to evaluate our digital assets in accordance with best practices and is supported by a diverse team of accessibility professionals, including users with disabilities.

Through this partnership, the SVA Alumni Society continues to develop our digital accessibility program and capabilities so that we are designing, developing, and testing our websites and online services for conformance to accessibility standards.
