I just got back from a double-conference trip, first to DrupalCon Nashville, followed mid-week by the NTEN Nonprofit Technology Conference (18NTC) in New Orleans. That's a lot of conferences in one week, but my brief trip to each conference was really fulfilling. Here, I tell more about co-presenting the 18NTC session, "Website Accessibility Is A Social Justice Issue".

What gets me out of bed in the morning, day after day, to build websites for nonprofits is the idea that a well-built website can make an org's work easier, save them time, or help them reach more people. Our client The Actors Fund (TAF) recently used their Drupal site to do all of those things, in response to the devastating 2017 hurricanes. The Emergency Assistance Relief Application serves as an online intake form for those affected by the three hurricanes, as well as the California wildfires.
I've finally managed to migrate our old blog from our old Drupal 7 site with its old design to this new Drupal 8 one, with its new design. In the meantime, I also wrote a blog post for SuperYesMore's Human in the Machine project, about productivity. Or, more like, how to stop being productive when the day is over.
I'm dashing this off because I just read Ethan Marcotte's post "Free, faster". In his post, he's talking about a problem that we deal with all the time in our work with nonprofit organizations. And due to the political climate, we're dealing with it even more than usual right now.
