Accessibility Statement

This statement was last updated November 26, 2025. We at the Brazos Valley Museum of Natural History are committed to making our website accessible to all people, including individuals with disabilities.

What Web Accessibility Is

An accessible site allows visitors with disabilities to browse the site with the same or a similar level of ease, independence, and enjoyment as other visitors. This can be achieved through the capabilities of the system on which the site operates, as well as through compatible assistive technologies.

Accessibility Adjustments on This Site

We have adapted this site in accordance with WCAG 2.1 guidelines and have made efforts to align the site with Level AA accessibility standards. The site’s contents have been designed to work with assistive technologies such as screen readers and keyboard navigation.

As part of our ongoing commitment to accessibility, we have:

Used the Accessibility Wizard to find and fix potential accessibility issues
Set the language of the site
Set the content order of the site’s pages
Defined clear heading structures on all of the site’s pages
Added alternative text to images
Used descriptive, meaningful link text
Avoiding content that flashes or causes sensory triggers
Conducting periodic accessibility audits to identify and correct issues
