ACCESSIBILITY AND USABILITY

A clearer search path should be easier to use.

Financial Foundations works to make its educational pages understandable and usable across common devices, browsers, keyboards, and assistive technologies. This statement describes the practical approach and how to report a barrier.

Last reviewed: Effective July 19, 2026

01

Our practical approach

We aim to provide semantic headings, readable text, keyboard-reachable interactive controls, visible focus treatment, responsive layouts, and clear calls to action. We also provide English and Spanish content for key public guidance and avoid requesting sensitive information in public forms.

02

Content and external services

Official state programs and third-party services open in separate websites that Financial Foundations does not control. Their accessibility, content, and support channels are independent. If an external destination creates a barrier, use the state’s own support path or return to the state directory to confirm the correct official program.

03

Need an alternative route

Use the state directory, the search guide, or the Get Started form to ask a non-sensitive question about finding the right official starting point. You can also use your browser’s zoom, text-size, translation, and reader features where helpful. Do not send sensitive documents through a public web form.

04

Report an accessibility barrier

If you encounter a specific barrier on this website, send a non-sensitive support request with the page address, the task you were trying to complete, and a brief description of the issue. Financial Foundations will use that information to review the experience and identify a practical next step.

Keep the official state program in view.

Financial Foundations provides education-first guidance. The relevant state program remains the authoritative source for records, claim requirements, verification, and decisions.
