Eleos is committed to making our website accessible and welcoming to people with disabilities. We believe everyone should be able to explore information about our programs, retreats, and community, and contact our team without unnecessary barriers.
Our goal is for eleosjourney.com to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make digital content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities.
Our accessibility priorities include:
Clear, readable content and consistent navigation.
Text alternatives for meaningful images.
Sufficient contrast between text and backgrounds.
Navigation and forms that can be used with a keyboard.
Compatibility with screen readers and other assistive technologies.
These priorities guide our approach to website improvements. Some parts of the website may not yet meet this goal, and we welcome feedback about barriers you encounter.
If you have difficulty viewing content, using a form, or accessing information on our website, please contact us. We will work with you to provide the information or assistance you need through an accessible alternative.

If you have accessibility needs related to an online session or in-person retreat, please contact our team before registering so we can discuss the location, activities, and available accommodations.
Some parts of your experience may involve websites or services operated by other organizations, such as booking platforms or video conferencing tools. Their accessibility may vary. If you encounter a barrier while using a service connected to an Eleos program, please let us know so we can help explore an alternative.
We welcome suggestions for making our website easier to use. We will review accessibility concerns and use that feedback to guide improvements. This policy will be updated as our accessibility approach evolves.
