Built to be usable
Accessibility
Last updated: October 13, 2026
This whole site exists to make hard moments easier for families who need support. So making the site itself usable for everyone isn't an afterthought, it's the point.
What we aim for
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA, and we check our pages against that standard as the site grows. We last reviewed the site on October 13, 2026, with automated checks and keyboard testing, and fixed what we found. We consider the site partially conformant until we have also tested it with screen readers on real devices.
What that looks like here
In practice that means: clear, high-contrast text that scales when you zoom; pages you can move through with a keyboard; labels and structure that screen readers can follow; no tracking, no pop-ups, and no auto-playing sound or video; tools that work offline once the page has loaded; and printed pages that come out clean and calm on paper.
Where we still fall short
Be Ausome is a small, free project built by one parent, so some corners may not be perfect yet. Screen reader testing on real devices is still ahead of us. We treat accessibility problems as real bugs and fix them as we find them. Our Spanish pages are translated and improving, and the legal pages are awaiting a native-speaker review.
Tell us about a barrier
If something on the site is hard or impossible to use, please tell us, it genuinely helps. Email the page you were on and what got in your way, and we'll do our best to fix it quickly.
