The primary objective for this project was to develop a user-friendly website for The Empress Walk, a grassroots organization based in Toronto, Canada, dedicated to supporting African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) women and families with
children and youth on the autism spectrum. The website serves as a comprehensive platform to showcase their programs, resources, and community initiatives, emphasizing cultural responsiveness and inclusivity.
In addition to developing the website, implementing extensive on-page SEO was a key requirement. This ensured the platform effectively highlighted their specialized services and resources, while increasing visibility in local search results,
helping them reach and support more families within the ACB community in Toronto.
Challenges
The Empress Walk Women's Health Organization recognized several challenges that necessitated the development of a comprehensive online platform to better serve African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) women and families with children and youth

Lack of Centralized Information: Absence of a dedicated website hindered the ability to provide timely updates on programs, events, and resources.
Challenges in Information Dissemination: Difficulty in providing detailed information about workshops, eligibility criteria, and support services to the target audience.
Manual Registration Processes: Reliance on offline methods for program registrations led to inefficiencies and potential for errors in managing participant information.
