Wall of Champions

We have a tendency to really focus on jargon and/or regulatory language. And putting things in plain language and making it easily accessible can only improve individuals’ access to the things that they need.

– Heather Norton, Director of Developmental Services, Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services

What Does Info Access Look Like?

People seated at tables in a room while on computers. Two instructors stand at the front of the room. A man stands to the right of the frame.
