Background 
The "Habogrim for a Better Future" Association (registered non-profit organization) ("the Association") emphasizes the importance of adapting its services for people with various disabilities. It does so on the basis of – among other things - a worldview that seeks to provide all people with equal opportunity and access to service and information.

Accordingly, the Association has invested resources in making its website and the pages on that site accessible, and it continues to emphasize the importance of providing equal service to all users of the site, including people with disabilities.

Employee Awareness - All Association employees have been informed of the legal requirements regarding this issue. They have been instructed in these matters, with an emphasis on the need to prevent discrimination against disabled users, and to provide equal and accessible service in an inclusive environment. They have also been informed of the Association's accessibility arrangements for clients and potential clients with disabilities.

We have made efforts to improve the accessibility of the Association’s services and of the website in particular, as part of our commitment to enabling its use by the entire population, including people with disabilities.

We note that despite our efforts to make all pages and content on the site accessible, and because the site is a dynamic site that includes various content entry systems, users may discover parts of the site that have not yet been made fully accessible. If you encounter such a site element, please contact the Association’s representatives so that the necessary correction can be made as soon as possible. In general, we are available to respond to requests for information and/or suggestions for improvement, in order to improve customer service.
The Association attributes great importance to the provision of quality, professional, equal and accessible service to everyone, but please note that the site may also include content from other sites operated and/or held by third parties and such content may not have been made accessible. We note that the Association is not responsible for such content or for its accessibility, but we will be happy to receive your comments and try to help you contact those third parties, so that they can be made aware of the issue (without us being able to guarantee that those third parties will make the necessary adjustments, as required by law).
