  4. 04Do staff know how to respond respectfully to accommodation requests or barriers?
  5. 05Can people use your website, documents, forms, scheduling systems, and videos with different access needs?

  7. 07Do you have a process for finding, prioritizing, and addressing barriers?
  8. 08Do you seek lived-experience input before major design or program decisions?
  9. 09Can people participate in meetings, events, services, and programs without being treated like an exception?
