SUMMARY:Accessibility Feedback Sessions
DESCRIPTION:SESSION INFO: « Back to all events \nIf you are interested in making your work or ideas more accessible\, bring something you are working on (e.g. presentation\, slide deck\, article\, training materials\, poster\, etc) and anyone that joins this group can choose to provide some suggestions and feedback for you and your project\, or you can join us as an observer to learn the art of how to give and get feedback! \nOnce a month we will gather on zoom to give and receive feedback on something that we are working on. The reason we do this is because getting feedback and sharing ideas with a diverse group of people helps to improve communication and accessibility. We want everyone to understand and really get what it is we are trying to share! It is also a place for us to practice giving feedback\, because that can be difficult sometimes. \n  \nJOIN THE EXPERIENCE
