Dear John, Many nonprofits want to make their events accessible and welcoming to people with disabilities but donât know how to start. If your organization is in that group, we understand.
At the Chronicle, we too have lagged in ensuring that disabled individuals can participate fully in our virtual events. With guidance from the experts joining our next webinar, we have begun making accommodations that are fairly simple and inexpensive yet vitally important.
We hope youâll join us in this work by signing up for How to Make Virtual Events Accessible to People With Disabilities. Youâll get detailed advice from:
- Bridget Hayman, Communications Director, Access Living
- Risa Rifkind, Director of Civic Engagement and Marketing, Disability Lead
- Ingrid Tischer, Director of Development, Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund
They'll explain how to get started â and how to prioritize â when improving accessibility at an event, how to ensure communications materials are accessible and inclusive, and ways to foster an organizational culture that values these efforts.
Register now to save your spot. Join us on Thursday, February 24, at 2 PM ET or watch the recording whenever you like.
This session includes live captioning and ASL interpretation. To request other accommodations, please email copevents@philanthropy.com or call 202-466-1032. Sincerely, Drew Lindsay
