ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

Effective Date: October 2, 2026
Last Updated: October 2, 2026

The Texas Industrial Workforce Foundation (“TIWF”) is committed to providing a website and digital resources that are accessible to the broadest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities.

TIWF believes that access to workforce information, charitable programs, applications, donation opportunities, partnerships, and organizational resources should be available to all people.

Our Accessibility Goal

TIWF seeks to design, maintain, and improve www.tiwf.org in a manner consistent with recognized accessibility practices.

As part of that effort, TIWF uses the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA as a reference and accessibility goal.

Accessibility is an ongoing process, and TIWF will continue working to improve the usability and accessibility of its website and digital materials as technology, standards, and organizational resources evolve.

Accessibility Features

TIWF seeks to support accessibility through practices such as:

  • Clear and consistent website navigation

  • Readable text and appropriate text sizing

  • Appropriate color contrast

  • Descriptive page headings

  • Meaningful link text

  • Alternative text for meaningful images when appropriate

  • Keyboard-accessible navigation and controls where supported

  • Forms that use clear labels and instructions

  • Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet, and mobile devices

  • Content structured to support assistive technologies

  • Avoidance of unnecessary flashing or rapidly moving content

  • Clear identification of required form fields and instructions

Forms and Applications

TIWF uses electronic forms and third-party services for certain applications, inquiries, signatures, and other processes.

We recognize that accessibility may vary across technologies, browsers, devices, assistive technologies, and third-party platforms.

If you experience difficulty completing a TIWF application, form, or other electronic process, please contact us. TIWF will make reasonable efforts to provide the information or process in an accessible alternative format when appropriate.

Alternative arrangements may include assistance by telephone, email, printed document, or another reasonable method depending on the circumstances.

Documents and PDFs

Some TIWF materials may be provided as PDF files or other downloadable documents.

TIWF seeks to make important digital documents accessible where reasonably practicable. However, some documents, including historical, third-party, scanned, or externally produced materials, may not be fully accessible to all users or assistive technologies.

If you need assistance accessing a TIWF document, please contact us and identify the document or information you need.

Third-Party Content and Services

The TIWF website may contain links to or integrate with third-party websites, electronic-signature systems, payment processors, social-media platforms, training providers, government resources, and other external services.

TIWF does not control the accessibility of independent third-party websites or platforms.

If you experience an accessibility issue involving a third-party service accessed through the TIWF website, please contact us. We will make reasonable efforts to assist you or identify another way to access the relevant TIWF information or service when possible.

Feedback and Accessibility Assistance

TIWF welcomes feedback regarding the accessibility of its website and digital resources.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier, please let us know.

When contacting us, it is helpful to include:

  • The page, form, or document you were trying to access

  • The nature of the difficulty you experienced

  • The device, browser, or assistive technology involved, if known

  • Your preferred method of receiving the information or assistance

Providing this information is optional but may help TIWF respond more effectively.

Ongoing Improvement

Digital accessibility is an ongoing responsibility rather than a one-time project.

TIWF may periodically review its website, forms, documents, and digital services and make improvements based on accessibility standards, user feedback, technology changes, and organizational resources.

This Accessibility Statement may be updated as TIWF's website, programs, or accessibility practices change.
