Accessibility services for nonprofit websites.
Every site we build meets WCAG 2.2 AA by default — that part isn’t a service, it’s a standard. These services are for everything else: auditing the site you have, fixing what’s broken, keeping it compliant as it changes, and training your team to publish accessibly.
In one line
Elevation provides nonprofit website accessibility services: audits, remediation, ongoing monitoring, and team training, all delivered by a CPACC-certified team that builds accessibility into every project at the outset.
Four ways we help, wherever you’re starting from.
Accessibility audits
A structured review of your current site against WCAG 2.2 AA, combining automated scans with expert manual testing using keyboard and assistive technology. The result is a prioritized, plain-English findings report your team and board can act on.
Remediation
We fix what the audit finds on the site you already have, whether or not we built it: contrast, focus order, forms, headings, alt text, media, and the harder structural issues.
Ongoing monitoring
Websites drift out of compliance one content update at a time. Monitoring catches regressions as they happen, so accessibility holds up long after launch. It’s a natural fit with our maintenance plans.
Team training
Your editors publish every week; we teach them to publish accessibly, covering images and alt text, headings, links, documents, and color, so compliance doesn’t erode between audits.
The standard we adopt
WCAG 2.2 AA is our baseline on every engagement. It’s the most recent standard, and it supersedes the version the ADA requires. Our team undergoes regular accessibility trainings and works from the W3C body of knowledge. Read how accessibility runs through our whole process.
Accessibility is mission work, not compliance work.
The people nonprofits exist to serve are disproportionately likely to rely on assistive technology. An inaccessible website quietly turns away the donors, volunteers, and program participants you most want to reach. It also exposes your organization to legal risk it doesn’t need. For the practical checklist, see our guide to nonprofit accessibility best practices.
Answers, up front.
Yes. Most audits are for sites other teams built. You get the same prioritized findings and can have us remediate, hand the report to your developer, or split the work.
It scales with the size and complexity of your site. The number of unique page types and interactive components matters more than the raw page count. We scope it plainly after a short consultation.
Courts increasingly read the ADA to cover websites, and organizations receiving federal funding may have Section 504 obligations. WCAG conformance is the practical way to reduce that exposure. Talk to your counsel about your specific requirements.
No — and be wary of anyone who says otherwise. Every content update can introduce new issues, which is why monitoring and editor training matter as much as the initial fix.
