Where we stand

Elevation and Accessibility

Elevation is committed to providing inclusive experiences for users of our website and our client’s websites. We embrace the social model of disability as defined by the World Health Organization as a mismatch between the features of a person’s body and the features of the environments in which they live. We seek to use technology that enables matched interactions for people across a wide spectrum of abilities.

Conformance status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Elevation is fully conformant with WCAG 2.0 level AA. We are committed to continuous improvement so that we may increase our compliance level over time as we learn and grow.

A note to our clients

We encourage you to develop your own accessibility statement for display on your website under the guidance provided here by W3C. The statement you adopt should be personalized to reflect your organization’s unique values while maintaining the original spirit of inclusivity espoused by W3C’s Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).
