Accessibility Statement
This statement was last updated on June 24, 2026
By The Way is committed to making our website accessible, welcoming, and easy to use for as many people as possible. Our mission is centered on discovery, connection, and belonging, and we believe that begins with creating an online experience that is thoughtful, inclusive, and supportive of individuals with different abilities, needs, and ways of navigating the world.
Our Commitment
By The Way works to provide a website experience that is accessible to adults with disabilities, families, caregivers, support staff, community partners, and visitors. We aim to make our content clear, organized, readable, and easy to navigate so users can find events, resources, and information with greater confidence.
As the website grows, we will continue working to improve accessibility features, page structure, event listings, forms, and content presentation.
Wix Accessibility Tools
The By The Way website is built on the Wix platform. As part of our accessibility efforts, we may use Wix accessibility tools, including the Wix Accessibility Wizard, to help identify and address potential accessibility issues on the website.
The Wix Accessibility Wizard can help review items such as page structure, heading order, alt text, color contrast, and other website elements that may impact accessibility. While these tools are helpful, accessibility is an ongoing process, and automated tools may not identify every issue or guarantee full compliance for every user or assistive technology.
By The Way will make reasonable efforts to review and improve website accessibility as new pages, event listings, resources, and features are added.
Accessibility Goals
By The Way strives to support accessibility through:
-
Clear and readable website content
-
Simple navigation and page layouts
-
Helpful headings and organized sections
-
Descriptive event and resource information
-
Consideration for users with visual, physical, cognitive, developmental, sensory, and communication-related needs
-
Compatibility with commonly used browsers, devices, and assistive technologies when possible
Ongoing Improvements
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. As new events, resources, pages, and website features are added, By The Way will continue reviewing and improving the site to better serve our community.
While we work to make the website as accessible as possible, some content, tools, features, or integrations may be provided through Wix or other third-party services. By The Way may not have full control over all platform-level code, embedded tools, forms, widgets, maps, registration pages, payment pages, linked websites, or other third-party content.
Third-Party Content and Links
The By The Way website may include links to third-party websites, event pages, registration platforms, community organizations, advertisers, sponsors, social media pages, maps, or other outside resources. These third-party websites and tools are not controlled by By The Way.
While we make an effort to share helpful and appropriate resources, By The Way cannot guarantee the accessibility, accuracy, safety, availability, or usability of third-party content. Users are encouraged to contact the third-party event organizer, business, organization, or service provider directly with questions about accessibility, accommodations, registration, or participation needs.
Event Accessibility Information
By The Way may include accessibility notes within event listings when available. These notes may include details about mobility access, sensory considerations, quiet spaces, caregiver or support staff attendance, parking, seating, registration requirements, or other helpful information.
Because events may be hosted by outside organizations, users are encouraged to contact the event organizer directly to confirm specific accessibility needs before attending.
