Accessibility Statement
Barrington Islamic Center is committed to making our website accessible and welcoming to all members of our community.
We want everyone who visits the Barrington Islamic Center website to be able to access information about our prayers, programs, events, services, and community.
Our Commitment
Barrington Islamic Center (“BIC,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to providing a website experience that is accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities.
We seek to improve accessibility as our website grows and evolves and to make reasonable efforts to identify and address barriers that may interfere with access to website content or functionality.
Accessibility Features
As part of our ongoing accessibility efforts, we aim to use website design and content practices that support usability across different devices, browsers, and assistive technologies.
These efforts may include:
- Clear and consistent page structure
- Readable text and appropriate color contrast
- Descriptive headings and page titles
- Alternative text for meaningful images when appropriate
- Keyboard-accessible navigation where supported
- Descriptive links and buttons
- Responsive layouts for mobile devices and larger screens
- Reducing unnecessary visual clutter
- Improving accessibility as new website content is added
Ongoing Improvement
Accessibility is an ongoing process. As BIC adds new pages, forms, media, programs, and website features, we intend to continue reviewing the website and making reasonable improvements when accessibility issues are identified.
Technology, accessibility standards, website platforms, and third-party services may also change over time. For that reason, some website features may not always work perfectly with every assistive technology, browser, or device.
Third-Party Content & Services
The BIC website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites and services, including donation platforms, maps, videos, forms, social-media services, and other external resources.
Because these services are operated independently, BIC may not have direct control over their accessibility features or functionality.
If you encounter an accessibility barrier involving a third-party service accessed through our website, you are welcome to contact us and we will make reasonable efforts to help you access the information or service you need.

If you are unable to access information on our website, experience difficulty using a page or feature, or need information provided in an alternative format, please contact Barrington Islamic Center.
When contacting us, it is helpful to include the page or feature you were trying to access and a brief description of the difficulty you experienced.
We will make reasonable efforts to provide the requested information or assistance through an alternative method when appropriate.
