Glen,

Thank you so much for your email. I appreciate the information and resources you offer, as well as your perspective on the social media implementation. I tested a page yesterday, and the developer has the social media feed (which is produced/managed by the organization, so we do have control over it), visually hidden for screen reader users. However, I argued having this content visually hidden isn't providing equal access to the entire contents of the page. Thank you for giving me the "skip link" suggestions, as well as the necessary consideration of being able to navigate away from/out of the content.
