Accessibility Statement
Open Gates Counseling & Coaching is working to make this website easier to use for people with disabilities.
Last updated: August 2026.
Our commitment
We want everyone to find information, learn about coaching, and contact us with fewer barriers. Website accessibility is an ongoing part of our work.
When we update the site, we check the page structure, wording, colors, keyboard use, link names, image descriptions, and mobile layout. We will keep fixing problems we find.
Accessibility standards
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines are often called WCAG. They give practical steps for making websites easier to use for people with disabilities. Open Gates aims to follow this guidance and is working toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA.
The site includes a skip link, clear page structure, visible keyboard focus, keyboard-friendly navigation, image descriptions, readable color contrast, mobile layouts, and reduced-motion support.
Conformance status
An outside expert has not audited or certified this website. Open Gates does not claim that every page or feature fully meets WCAG 2.2 Level AA.
We are still reviewing and improving the site. Some barriers may remain, especially after a browser, tool, or page changes.
Third-party tools
The calendar, intake form, and client agreement open on Google websites. Google controls how those tools work and how accessible they are.
If a Google tool is hard to use, call or email us. We will make a reasonable effort to give you the same information or help you finish the task another way.
Feedback and contact
Please tell us if you find a problem or need information in another format. Tell us which page, link, or task caused trouble and what help you need.
