Accessibility Statement

Ambassador Boisrond's work rests on the dignity of every person, and a website that some people cannot use would contradict that. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 at level AA.

Every page can be navigated by keyboard alone, and a skip link lets you jump straight to the main content. Focus is always visible. Images carry text descriptions, form fields carry visible labels, and errors are announced to screen readers rather than shown by colour alone.

Colour combinations were chosen to hold contrast against both the light and dark sections of the site. Motion, including the rotating seal on the welcome page, stops entirely when your device requests reduced motion. The welcome video is decorative, carries no spoken information, and can be skipped.

The site is published in English, French, Spanish and Haitian Creole, and each page declares its language so screen readers pronounce it correctly.

The Ambassador's full biography is currently published in English only, since that is the language of her official record. The downloadable biography PDF has not been remediated for screen readers. If you need that document in another format, contact us and we will provide it.

If any part of this site is difficult to use, we want to hear about it. Write to office@ambassadorboisrond.org or call (516) 343-3799, describe what happened and the page you were on, and we will respond within five business days and tell you how and when we will fix it.
