Agile is Ableist

Join us for an online meetup with Tori Clark on Agile is Ableist!

Have you experienced broken promises of better accessibility with Agile? Or are you just now looking into Agile and wondering how it can help your team achieve inclusive design and accessible code?

We've enabled Zoom to live-stream with YouTube Live (20-sec delay), so you can watch the presentation. YTL link will be generated when Zoom goes live. We will update this page and post on social channels. We will monitor YTL chat if you have questions for the presenters, and we’ll do our best to relay to them during the discussion.
