Accessibility Statement

Quick Answer

Why is accessibility part of MA4MS?

Accessibility is central because people with MS may experience vision, fatigue, mobility, cognitive, or other changing access needs.

Accessibility is part of the MA4MS mission, not a separate feature added at the end.

Our Accessibility Goal

MA4MS aims to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA. This is a goal and not a claim that every page or third-party service has completed a formal conformance audit.

What We Work to Support

  • Strong text and control contrast.
  • Readable typography and stable layouts at high magnification.
  • Keyboard-accessible navigation, forms, panels, and dialogs.
  • Large, predictable targets for pointer and touch use.
  • Meaningful alternative text and decorative-image handling.
  • Clear headings, labels, error messages, and focus indicators.
  • Responsive presentation across phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.

Testing and Known Limitations

MA4MS combines automated checks with keyboard, zoom, responsive-layout, and assistive-technology review. Some external websites, embedded services, payment tools, newsletter tools, and older browser or assistive-technology combinations are outside MA4MS control and may present limitations. External links are identified where practical.

Report an Accessibility Barrier

Use the Contact page and choose Accessibility feedback. Describe what happened, the page involved, and the technology or browser being used when practical. MA4MS will review the report and respond as resources allow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does MA4MS include an accessibility statement?

People with MS may experience vision, fatigue, mobility, cognitive, or other access changes. Accessibility is central to the audience and mission.

How can I report a problem?

Use the Contact page and choose “Accessibility feedback.”

Does this statement claim formal WCAG conformance?

No. MA4MS identifies WCAG 2.2 Level AA as its target and describes current testing without making an unsupported formal conformance claim.

Are third-party services fully controlled by MA4MS?

No. MA4MS works to choose and configure accessible services, but external sites and third-party tools may have limitations outside MA4MS control.
