Website Accessibility & Digital Inclusion


As part of our commitment to accessibility, HOPE Online Learning Academy continually works to ensure compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.2, levels A and AA criteria. These guidelines are designed to make web content accessible to users with sensory, cognitive, and mobility disabilities, as well as enhance usability for all users.

Our ongoing accessibility efforts align with State of Colorado initiatives to make digital services more inclusive. Feedback from our community is essential, and we welcome suggestions on how we can further improve accessibility across our website and digital platforms.
