Accessibility is a partnership that requires communication

November 3, 2022 at 01:00 UTC

Maxwell Ivey will share how people with disabilities want to feel welcome or even needed by developers. People with disabilities are loyal consumers who influence friends, family, and our online communities, and communication during the creation process is where accessibility really needs to start.

Help learn how to encourage developers to build relationships with disabled people and organizations to provide robust testing through the process of developing new tools.

You can avoid misunderstandings by connecting with tech support people before a problem rather than when you run into a snag, but developers need to invite that interaction from the beginning.
