We are proud to say that this complies with all of the automatic checkpoints of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines - up to and including Priority 2 level. We continue to working hard to satisfy all Priority 3 checkpoints as well.

One small issue with our contact form is keeping us from obtaining the Prioity 3 rating.

We do feel that it will detract from the look of the page, however. That being said, we are happy to have satisified Priority 2 standards and be very close to the Priority 3 approval.
