Our Commitment to Accessibility & Disability Justice
Last Updated: June 2026
Talem's work is grounded in an intersectional, equity-based framework that centers the lived experiences of communities most impacted by structural injustice. We believe that shared liberation requires breaking down barriers in every environment, including the digital spaces we co-create.
We are deeply committed to ensuring that our website is accessible, usable, and welcoming to all individuals, including people with disabilities. Digital accessibility is a direct reflection of our core values of accountability, integrity, and centering care.
1. Active Standards and Alignment
To provide an inclusive experience, we work with Clym.io to align our digital platform with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 or higher. These guidelines outline best practices for making web content more accessible for people with wide ranges of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological abilities.
Our website utilizes equity-aligned design choices, clear semantic structures, and data-informed practices to ensure that our resources, toolkits, and shared vocabularies are readily navigable by assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and keyboard-only navigation.
2. An Ongoing, Iterative Practice
As technologies advance and our platform evolves, we routinely review and update our digital infrastructure to address emerging barriers and improve user experiences. We recognize our platform may interface with third-party components or plugins that are outside our direct control. We are not responsible for their content, privacy policies, or accessibility standards.
3. Revisions & Feedback
Strong partnerships are built on shared accountability, mutual respect, and transparent, courageous dialogue. If you encounter any digital barriers, find a component of our site difficult to navigate, or believe certain information could be presented in a more accessible manner, we want to hear from you. Your lived experience is vital to helping us improve our internal systems.
Please contact us with feedback, questions, or specific accommodation requests and specify the particular web page or feature you are trying to access, along with a brief description of the issue encountered, so that we may address it effectively. We are committed to responding to your inquiry with transparency and care, and we will work diligently to provide the information or service you need through alternative formats if necessary.
