Accessibility Statement

Accessibility is not a feature of MHC. It is the reason MHC is built the way it is.

Our commitment

Mental Health Core was founded by a disabled veteran and licensed mental health counselor who uses assistive technology every day. We target conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, and we treat that as a floor, not a finish line.

What we build in

High-contrast text on a warm, low-glare canvas
A visible focus indicator on every interactive element
Full keyboard operability
Respect for your reduced-motion system setting
Large touch targets and a single-column reading layout
Plain language, short screens, one idea at a time
Crisis support visible on every screen

Honest status

Formal accessibility assessment of the current release is in progress. We publish this statement before that assessment is complete because accountability should not wait for paperwork.

Tell us what's broken

If any part of MHC is difficult or impossible for you to use, that is a defect, and we want to know. Email coreinfo@mentalhealthcore.com. Reports go to the founder directly.
