Accessibility Statement

Last updated: June 2026

Our Commitment to Accessibility

The Carmey Omri nonprofit is committed to digital accessibility and equal opportunity for all users, including people with disabilities. We operate in accordance with Israeli Standard IS 5568 and the WCAG 2.1 Level AA guidelines.

Current Level of Accessibility

The site was built with accessibility principles in mind. Adaptations made on the site include:

• Standard semantic structure — clear heading hierarchy, landmarks for navigation
• Full keyboard navigation — all interface elements are accessible without a mouse
• Visible focus indication on all interactive elements
• Alternative text for images and media
• Form errors are displayed with clear, announced descriptions
• Screen reader support — hidden headings, live ARIA announcements
• "Skip to main content" button to bypass repeated navigation
• Built-in accessibility menu with 8 options: text size, high contrast, link highlighting, readable font, stop animations, grayscale, increased spacing, and day mode
• Accessibility preferences are saved for your next visit
• All videos are embedded with accessible titles
• Contrast ratios meet WCAG AA requirements (at least 4.5:1 for regular text)
• The site is displayed in LTR direction suited to English

Known Limitations

• Vimeo videos embedded on the site — their accessibility is subject to the Vimeo platform's own accessibility
• The photo gallery does not include detailed natural-language descriptions for every image

Assistive Technologies Tested

The site was tested with the following combinations:

• NVDA + Chrome (Windows)
• VoiceOver + Safari (macOS and iOS)
• TalkBack + Chrome (Android)
• Keyboard-only navigation — Chrome, Firefox, Safari
