What are Local Groups?

Local Groups will expand your career network—whether you are interested in learning new skills, finding job opportunities or looking for a new employee.

A Local Group is a group of people who, like you, are passionate about design. Local Groups organize meetings to get inspired, have fun and learn from one another.

Meet-Up Details

On April 24, 2024, the Federal Register published the Department of Justice’s (Department) final rule updating its regulations for Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The final rule has specific requirements about how to ensure that web content and mobile applications (apps) are accessible to people with disabilities.

Join us for an introduction to what's happening, who the rules apply to, key dates, and what this means for you.

Lacy is a seasoned UX Designer dedicated to making technology work for people with a wide range of abilities. After securing buy-in to address the ADA Title II 2026 deadlines, she’s eager to help others understand this federal mandate and provide insights on how to unite teams and proactively navigate these challenges.
