Super Accessibility Champion Alicia St. Rose will enlighten one and all on the amazing properties of the GeneratePress WordPress theme.

Using examples drawn from her own beautifully accessible client websites, Alicia will illustrate the many accessibility-ready built-in features of GP and its supporting plugin, GenerateBlocks (the latter works with any WordPress theme to super-charge WordPress's now-default block editor).

Like Alicia herself, GeneratePress is already well known to possess out-of-this-world performance powers and fantastic support capabilities -- and is highly tuned to be accessible out of the box.

Alicia St. Rose is an amazing Santa Barbara, California-based designer/developer of many years, a WordPress Passionista, Dev, and Coach with a long background as a fine artist. She runs her own helpdesk-style WordPress Meetup, South Central Coast WordPress Adventure Group and is not afraid to embrace her inner geek.

This will be a power packed educational event. We encourage attendees to learn more about GeneratePress theme (and GenerateBlocks plugin) features that will be covered so that you can have your questions ready. (opens in new window) https://generatepress.com/

Who should attend?

Our meetup is inclusive. This event is for people who love WordPress and Accessibility and want to share their knowledge, experience, and to meet other WordPress users in the area. Both experienced and beginner WordPress designers and developers are encouraged to attend and participate.

We do have a few rules.

In line with the mission of WordPress, our meetup was established using 4 of the 5 Good Faith Rules from Make WordPress (see our website: https://wa11ywp.org/meetup-4-good-faith-rules/).

Also please check our Code of Conduct (https://wa11ywp.org/meetup-code-of-conduct/).
We’re a friendly bunch, always striving to offer a nurturing, encouraging environment where we can all talk and learn Web Accessibility while expanding our knowledge of WordPress.

NO sales pitches of products or services to the group, please.

We, the organizers/hosts, do not endorse any specific product we may introduce; our only intention is to educate.

ALSO: No legal discussion or advice please, unless you are a practicing civil rights or disability rights attorney and not just someone playing one on YouTube . . .

The International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP) has pre-approved Accessibility Web + WordPress educational events for Continuing Accessibility Education Credits (CAECs) for maintaining your certification with the IAAP.

We are committed to making this Meetup fully accessible, and live captions will be available through the Closed Captioning setting in the Zoom window. For more details on accessing the Closed Captioning during this meeting, please refer to Zoom’s Closed Captioning tutorial: (https://bit.ly/3CuALx0)
