Is Your Organization "Access-Able"?
Doing Good Better.
July 15, 2026 and August 11, 2026 from 11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m.
Led by: Katherine Schneider and Ann Kaiser
You value access and respect. Your organization wants everyone to fully participate—as a participant, staff member, volunteer, or donor—but knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming when time and resources are limited. How do you prioritize accessibility?
Where do you start?
If you’re ready to think strategically and plan practical next steps, join Pablo Foundation for a free two-part workshop (lunch included) on July 15, 2026 and August 11, 2026.
More than one in five people live with a disability, and while the Americans with Disabilities Act is now over 35 years old, accessibility means much more than ramps and restrooms.
Today, organizations are being called to think more broadly about inclusion—from accessible information and communication to representation in leadership and decision making.
In this two-part workshop, you’ll develop a realistic, actionable plan with support, to improve your organization’s accessibility in meaningful ways. You’ll also connect with other nonprofit leaders, staff, and volunteers who are committed to doing good—better.
Register at https://forms.office.com/r/740rRXuuQX?origin=lprLink or by using the QR Code in the flyer. Please let us know about any disability accommodations needed or dietary restrictions you have through the registration process. Registration will remain open until capacity is reached, or until Thursday, July 9 at 4:00 PM, whichever comes first.
Contact Katherine at schneiks@uwec.edu with questions.
