☁️ 🤔 Busy daydreaming of an accessible future
Here’s a few things to keep in mind for accessible events:
1. If organizing an in-person event, communicate accessibility (including elevator or ramp availability) & public transit options.
2. When organizing online events or trainings, include options for closed captioning. It is also helpful to record sessions for those unable to join live.
3. Avoid jargon and don’t assume everybody knows certain phrases or acronyms.
