This button will darken the page's background color to black while making all text white. This high contrast will make it easier to read the website's content.
This button will increase the size of all elements on the page.
This button adds a visible focus state to all interactive elements when using the keyboard. This allows the user to know exactly where they are on a site while tabbing through with a keyboard. Note: this will only affect sites that do not currently have visible focus states.
This button will add an outline to all links and buttons on a page that a user can interact with.
This triggers a check of all images on a page for either an 'alt', 'title', or an 'aria-label' attribute. Images that are purely decorative or do not include any information to convey to the user do not need alt text. In these cases, the alt attribute should still be present but should be left empty. Our checker will still flag empty alts as an error just in case.
This triggers a check of all text to ensure that it's color has a high enough contrast against the color of the background it is on. In some cases our checker will flag contrast errors for text that is on top of an image or when either the text or the background element has a position of 'absolute'. In these cases it is up to the site administrator's discretion to determine if the text is legible.
This triggers a check of all the page's links and buttons. Links and buttons without text or an aria-label describing what the link or button accomplishes will fail. Without text (including hidden screen reader only text) or an aria-label, assistive technology will not be able to determine the purpose of the link/button.
This triggers a search for all IDs on a page. Duplicate IDs will be flagged as an error. Duplicate ID errors are known to cause problems for assistive technologies when they are trying to interact with content. SVGs tend to be a major source of this failure. It's beneficial to remove all IDs from SVGs before placing them on a page.
In this 13-minute video produced by ICJS, our interreligious staff captured our own experiences of these three holidays. We’ve also created a Dialogue Facilitation Guide (below) with questions for discussion and resources for further reading.
We hope that you can use ICJS’s Lived Diversity: How We Observe and Celebrate Passover, Easter, and Ramadan video to engage in dialogue about religious identities and the traditions their adherents hold sacred. If you’re new to ICJS, we encourage you first to watch our Dialogue vs. Debate video for some discussion guidelines.
