A large share of the people who need this information have a disability — that is what SSI, SSDI and much of Medicaid exist for. A site about disability benefits that is hard to use with a screen reader would be a poor joke. We take accessibility seriously for that reason.
Our target
We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. This is a target we work toward continuously, not a certification we claim to hold.
What we have done
- Contrast. Body text, links and buttons were chosen against the WCAG contrast formula, not by eye. Body text sits well above the 4.5:1 minimum, and link color was darkened from the brand green specifically to clear it.
- Semantic structure. One
h1per page and headings in order, so a screen reader’s heading list is a usable table of contents. Landmarks — banner, navigation, main, contentinfo — are marked up. - Keyboard. Everything works without a mouse, with a visible focus indicator and a “skip to content” link as the first stop.
- Text that scales. Sizes are relative, so browser zoom and larger default font sizes work rather than clipping the layout.
- Images. Meaningful images carry alt text; purely decorative artwork is marked so assistive technology skips it.
- Tables. Data tables use real header cells, so a screen reader can announce which column a figure belongs to.
- Forms. Every field has a visible, associated label, and errors are explained in words rather than by color alone.
- No traps. No pop-ups that block the page, no interstitials, no auto-playing audio or video, no content that moves on its own.
- Plain language. Short sentences, defined jargon, and the acronym spelled out the first time it appears.
Known limitations
We would rather name these than imply the site is perfect:
- Advertising. Ads are supplied by third-party networks and we do not control their markup. Some ad creatives are less accessible than the rest of the page. We can block a specific offender if you report it.
- Wide tables. A few comparison tables scroll horizontally on a narrow screen. Where that happens we also state the key figures in the surrounding text.
- Linked sites. We link to government and third-party pages whose accessibility we cannot control.
Tell us about a barrier
If any part of this site is difficult or impossible for you to use, tell us and we will fix it. Write to contato@izzotodigital.com.br with “Accessibility” in the subject, or use the contact form. If you can, include the page, what you were trying to do, and the browser or assistive technology you were using — it makes the fix much faster.
We acknowledge accessibility reports within two business days. If something blocks you from reading an article, say so and we will send you the content in a format that works for you.
Getting an agency to accommodate you
Separately from this site: federal agencies are required to make their own services accessible, and to provide reasonable accommodations. If an agency’s website, form or office is not usable for you, you can ask for an accommodation, and you can complain. Section508.gov explains the federal standard, and the ADA information line covers your wider rights.
