Accessibility Statement

name: "Accessibility Statement"
short_description: A document-style accessibility compliance statement — conformance badge, intro, a checklist of commitments, a feedback contact, and a review date.
long_visual_description: >
  A centered reading column with a heading, a success-tinted conformance pill stating the standard
  the site targets, an intro paragraph, and a checklist of commitments each marked with a green
  check. A raised feedback panel invites visitors to report barriers via an email button, and a
  small muted line notes when the statement was last reviewed.

use_cases:
  - The accessibility statement page required of a government website.
  - A public-sector compliance page citing WCAG conformance.
  - A university or agency accessibility commitment page.
  - A vendor's VPAT-adjacent public accessibility summary.
  - A footer-linked "Accessibility" page on a civic site.
  - A statement page offering a route to report barriers.

recommended_for:
  - Public-sector and regulated sites that must publish a conformance statement.
  - Pages that pair a commitment list with a feedback channel.
avoid_for:
  - A full VPAT or detailed audit report (link to it instead).
  - A generic legal or privacy page (use a document layout).

markets:
  - Government
  - Education
  - Public sector

example_usage: >
  Set standard to the conformance target (defaults to WCAG 2.1 Level AA) and write a short intro.
  List concrete commitments in the commitments array — each becomes a checked line. Provide a
  contact_email to render the feedback panel's mailto button, and an updated date to stamp the last
  review.

props:
  standard: The accessibility standard targeted, shown in the conformance badge.
  intro: Optional opening paragraph stating the commitment.
  commitments: A checklist of specific accessibility measures, one checked line each.
  contact_email: Optional address for reporting barriers; renders the feedback panel and mailto button.
  updated: Optional preformatted date the statement was last reviewed.

example_prompts:
  - "Add an accessibility statement page conforming to WCAG 2.1 AA with a feedback email."
  - "Create our agency's accessibility commitment page with a list of measures."
  - "Show an accessibility statement with a report-a-barrier contact and last-reviewed date."

editorial_guidance: >
  Write commitments as concrete, verifiable measures rather than vague promises. State the exact
  standard and level you conform to, and keep the feedback route prominent and monitored so reports
  actually reach someone.
