Accessibility Statement
First Dad Guide should be usable by every parent and partner, including people who navigate by keyboard, use a screen reader, or need reduced motion, at 3am on very little sleep. We build to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA and treat accessibility as part of shipping, not an afterthought.
Measures in place
These are concrete steps built into every page of the site:
- Keyboard operable. The site and the week checklist tool can be operated with the keyboard alone, with a visible focus indicator and a skip-to-content link at the top of every page.
- Sufficient contrast. Text and interactive controls are designed to meet the WCAG AA contrast ratios in both the light and dark themes.
- Reduced motion. We respect the operating-system
prefers-reduced-motionsetting and suppress non-essential animation for visitors who ask for it. - Readable on mobile. Wide data tables (like the statistics page) stack into a readable, scrollable layout on small screens instead of forcing awkward horizontal scrolling of the whole page.
- Semantic structure. Pages use real headings, landmarks, lists, and descriptive link text so assistive technology can navigate them, and images carry text alternatives.
How we check
Before this site goes live and as we ship changes, we run automated and manual accessibility checks against the WCAG 2.2 AA rules, and a serious or critical issue blocks the release. Automated testing does not catch everything, so we also walk the site by keyboard. Accessibility is an ongoing effort: guidelines and our content evolve, and we may not have caught every issue.
Report a problem
If you hit a barrier on this site, or something is hard to use with your assistive technology, please tell us. Describe the page and what went wrong, and we will work to fix it. Reach the publisher through the Urban Algorithm contact page. First Dad Guide is a project of Urban Algorithm LLC.
