As we mark the 34th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Challenge Unlimited is thrilled to unveil our newly redesigned website at www.cuinc.org! This launch represents a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to accessibility and inclusivity for all individuals.
Why This Matters
The ADA has been a cornerstone in the fight for the rights and inclusion of individuals with disabilities. It has paved the way for greater accessibility in all aspects of life, from employment and education to public services and digital spaces. In honor of this landmark legislation, we have worked tirelessly to ensure that our new website embodies the principles of accessibility and inclusivity.
Key Features of Our New Accessible Website
Our new website has been designed with you in mind, featuring a range of accessibility improvements to enhance your browsing experience:
- Enhanced Navigation: Our user-friendly interface makes it easier than ever to find the information you need. Whether you’re looking for resources, event updates, or success stories, everything is just a click away.
- Accessible Menus: Simplified navigation menus ensure that all users, including those using screen readers, can effortlessly explore our site.
- New and Updated Content: We have added a wealth of new content, including informative articles, inspiring success stories, and valuable resources to support individuals with disabilities and their families.
Commitment to WCAG Compliance
To ensure that our website is accessible to everyone, we have adhered to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). These guidelines set the standard for creating web content that is perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. By following WCAG, we ensure that our website meets the needs of diverse users, including those with visual, auditory, and cognitive disabilities.
What is WCAG Compliance?
- Perceivable: Information and user interface components are presented in ways that all users can perceive. For example, providing text alternatives for non-text content.
- Operable: User interface components and navigation are operable. This includes making all functionality available from a keyboard and giving users enough time to read and use content.
- Understandable: Information and the operation of the user interface are understandable. This involves making text readable and predictable and providing input assistance where needed.
- Robust: Content can be reliably interpreted by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.

While we are proud of the strides we’ve made, we know that the journey toward full accessibility is ongoing. We need your help to continue improving our efforts.
