Accessibility Statement
JFCS is committed to providing a fully accessible website experience for people of all abilities, including individuals who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnification software, voice recognition tools, and alternative keyboard navigation.
Accessibility is central to our philosophy of care, dignity, and inclusion. Because we serve older adults, neurodivergent young adults, and people with disabilities, JFCS views digital accessibility as both a public responsibility and an extension of our values.
Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessibility
JFCS follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA as our guiding standard for website accessibility. These internationally recognized guidelines outline best practices for making web content more usable for a wide range of people and abilities.
As new pages, features, and content are added to our website, designs, code, and content entry practices are reviewed with accessibility in mind. Website accessibility is an ongoing process, and we regularly evaluate and improve our digital experience to meet or exceed applicable standards.
Testing is performed by our internal team using industry-standard tools and methods, including screen reader checks, color contrast analyzers, keyboard-only navigation, responsive design testing, and readability reviews.

Where We’re Improving
While we strive to make all areas of our website accessible, we recognize that some content and features may still be improved. We are actively working to identify and remediate accessibility issues as they arise, particularly as new tools, content types, and technologies are introduced.
This work is part of our broader commitment to ensuring that everyone’s experience with JFCS—online and offline—is respectful, inclusive, and welcoming. Please note that while we make every effort to ensure accessibility on our own website, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third-party websites we may link to.
