Measurable Goals and Objectives
Unpuzzling Disability will create 3 training videos for Ampersand staff on topics related to disability and provide captioned MP4 files for each.
UD will audit all materials submitted by Ampersand and produce a written report with suggestions for creating added accessibility.
UD will audit the Ampersand website for accessibility related to vision, hearing, intellectual disability and create a written report.
Accessible versions of forms (plain language, easy-read) will be created as appropriate. For example, client materials may need more adjustments than forms used only by staff
