Why Accessible Role Descriptions Matter?

Our digital volunteering platform is built on accessibility principles. Every role description should be inclusive, clear, and welcoming to everyone — including people with disabilities or those who may face barriers.

Why create accessible role descriptions?

• They ensure opportunities are open to all.

• They help volunteers feel confident and supported.

• They align with our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion.
