Introduction
In 2019, the Michigan Advocacy Program (MAP) received a Technology Initiative Grant (TIG) from the Legal Services Corporation (LSC) to bring UX design and usability testing training to the justice community.

Accessibility resources
Accessibility should not be an afterthought, but something that you take into account as you do research, create designs, and implement your solutions. Depending on the tools you use, there may be accessibility guidelines built in. Below are additional resources to review!
Accessibility resources for research
Remember that how you set up your research and prototypes has an effect on who is able to participate.
As technology becomes an increasingly critical part of how we work, organizational leaders are actively seeking ways to learn more about the software and best practices that can make their programs more effective and help them meet or exceed the LSC Technology Baselines. But with so many different technologies and solutions available, how do you know what’s useful, what’s affordable, and what’s practical?
Telephones—including text messaging, email, and chat—are a common means for people to seek help, and hotlines are a common way legal services provide that help. The right technologies can make sure your organization provides advice, referrals, and services clients need efficiently and in line with your existing procedures for intake and confidentiality.
