Awareness Day #gaad is almost here, on Thursday, May 20. Stay tuned

As part of GAAD's 10th anniversary, the A11yBay Meetup group, which I
co-lead, is looking to make history by partnering with other Meetup
groups (e.g., a11y, dev, ux-related) to co-host the largest Meetup
talking about accessibility on May 20 from 4:30 PM PT - 6:30 PM PT.
There will be at least three speakers, and other fun planned. If you
are a member or organizer of such a Meetup, or know an Meetup
organizer who would be interested in having their members learn a bit
about a11y, please email <EMAIL REMOVED> for details
and how to partner.

A sincere thanks to everyone who has supported GAAD for however long you have.

Jennison
