Accessibility and usability barriers 

All accessibility barriers that were identified during the tool's initial accessibility evaluation have been resolved. The list of known issues due to technical limitations can be found in the section below. The Profile team continues to incorporate accessibility testing in ongoing work. If you encounter any barriers, please report them to the Profile team.

Known accessibility barriers

The headings on the accordions within cards, including Data Sources, Related Resources, Accessibility and Usability Resources, should be ranked as level 3, as each card already contains a heading level 2. Unfortunately, due to technical limitations, the team is not currently able to implement a solution for the correct heading level order.
