Hi Auston,

My office reviewed a bunch of WordPress themes last year.

Here are the ones we recommended to our web services group:
- Koji <https://wordpress.org/themes/koji/>
- Neve <https://wordpress.org/themes/neve/>
- Miniva <https://wordpress.org/themes/miniva/>
- Author <https://wordpress.org/themes/author/>
- Componentz <https://wordpress.org/themes/componentz/>
- Aeonblog <https://wordpress.org/themes/aeonblog/>
- Twenty Twenty <https://wordpress.org/themes/twentytwenty/>
- Twenty Twenty One <https://wordpress.org/themes/twentytwentyone/>

None of them are perfect for accessibility, but would work with a few adjustments.

You can also search for "accessibility ready" (filter) themes here: <https://wordpress.org/themes/>

Best,

Hi All,

I'm curious if you have any accessible WordPress themes that you'd
recommend.

I found this theme: Icelander
<https://www.webmandesign.eu/portfolio/icelander-wordpress-theme/> that
claims to be WCAG 2.0 AA Compliant and some accessible themes from Pixelemu
<https://www.pixelemu.com/wordpress-themes>.

If you have any additional suggestions please let me know and I hope you
are having a great start to 2022.
