ACCESSIBILITY

We are committed to ensuring that our museum, heritage site, website and resources are accessible to all visitors, regardless of ability. We strive to provide an inclusive digital experience that meets accessibility standards and best practices.

Reliable Access

Our site features accessible pathways, ramps, and designated seating areas to accommodate mobility needs. We also offer visual and audio resources to enhance the experience for visitors with visual or hearing impairments. Our goal is to make the history of the Oro Black settlers available to everyone through thoughtful design and accommodations.
