Accessibility report for chicagoparkdistrict.com
Based on an automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan on July 11, 2026.
Accessibility isn't a nice-to-have — it's the law. This automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan of chicagoparkdistrict.com flagged 10 types of barrier to fix.
On this page, the most frequent barrier is "Some text on this page is too light to read against its background" — found on 8 elements. In total the scan flagged 24 issues across 10 categories of WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA, and the law across the EU under the European Accessibility Act. These barriers block screen-reader, keyboard-only, and low-vision users — and every one of them is fixable. Here's how.
Accessibility issues found, with fixes
An accessibility rule failed on this page.
WCAG 1.3.1 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.
How to fix it: Share the technical rule ID with your developer. They can look up the full fix at https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe.

WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.
How to fix it: Share the technical rule ID with your developer. They can look up the full fix at https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe.
Some images on this page have no description for screen readers.
WCAG 1.1.1 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Blind and low-vision users rely on screen readers to read pages aloud. When an image has no description, the screen reader either skips it entirely or reads out the file name — useless. Missing alt text is the #2 lawsuit-magnet category.
How to fix it: In your site editor, click each image and look for an 'Alt text' or 'Image description' field. Write a short sentence describing what the image shows or what it links to. For purely decorative images (dividers, background flourishes), enter empty alt text or check a 'decorative' box if the platform offers one.

WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.
How to fix it: Share the technical rule ID with your developer. They can look up the full fix at https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe.
Some text on this page is too light to read against its background.
WCAG 1.4.3 (Level AA) EN 301 549 Affects low-vision and colorblind users
Why it matters: People with low vision, older eyes, or anyone reading on a sunny phone screen can't make out faint text. Color blindness affects about 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women. Insufficient contrast is the #1 most-common cause of accessibility lawsuits — every Domino's-style ADA suit cites it.
How to fix it: If you use a website builder (Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, WordPress with a theme), open your site styles or theme color settings and pick darker text colors or lighter backgrounds. Aim for very dark text on white, or very light text on dark. Free check at webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker. If you have a developer, ask them to ensure all text meets WCAG AA contrast (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
A button's visible text doesn't match the description it announces to screen readers.
WCAG 2.5.3 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: A user dictating 'click Submit' to voice-control software may see 'Submit' on screen but the announce-name is something else, so the voice command fails.
How to fix it: Developer fix: 'aria-label should start with or fully contain the visible button text'.

Affects screen-reader and cognitive-disability users
Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.
How to fix it: Share the technical rule ID with your developer. They can look up the full fix at https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe.
An interactive element (link, button) is inside another interactive element.
WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects keyboard-only users
Why it matters: Keyboard and screen-reader users can't reliably reach the inner element. Common in 'card-as-link' designs where a button sits inside a clickable card.
How to fix it: Developer fix: 'avoid putting buttons inside links or links inside buttons; use a single interactive element with internal helpers'.
Heading levels skip — for example, an H2 jumps directly to an H4 with no H3 between them.
Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Screen-reader users navigate by heading levels. Skipped levels suggest missing content and break the page's outline. Confusing for everyone.
How to fix it: In your editor, find the headings that skip levels and either bump them up to the right level (H4 → H3 if no H2 exists between) or insert the missing level. Headings should follow a logical outline like a document outline.
This page is missing a main heading (H1).
Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Screen-reader users use the H1 to confirm they landed on the right page. The H1 is also a strong SEO signal — Google uses it to understand what the page is about.
How to fix it: Add a clear, descriptive H1 to the top of the page. In website builders, this is usually the 'Title' or 'Page heading' setting. Each page should have exactly one H1.
