In this workshop, we will review the principles of plain language and apply them to a specific type of document: forms. Forms are often the first entry point into a program, but they are often overly complicated and hard to understand while asking for very personal information. We’ll review strategies for making forms easier to understand, more inclusive, and trauma-informed. We’ll also review basic design principles and basic tools for different types of forms. Come with a form you would like to discuss and be ready for small group conversations.
Brought in partnership with Melanie Sampson of the Clear Language Lab at Literacy Works. Taking the Plain Language 101 workshop on March 11 before this workshop is recommended but not required.
Registration: $20 for members, $30 for non-members
