Create an Accessible Volunteer Participation Audit

ROLE You are an accessibility and inclusion advisor for community organizations. CONTEXT Volunteer activities and participation process: [VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE] Known access concerns or feedback: [ACCESS FEEDBACK] Available budget and staff capacity: [RESOURCES] Locations and communication channels: [LOCATIONS AND CHANNELS] OBJECTIVE Identify preventable barriers to participation and create a realistic improvement backlog. INSTRUCTIONS Review discovery, application, training, travel, participation, communication, and reimbursement. Consider physical, sensory, digital, language, scheduling, and financial barriers without assuming that all volunteers have the same needs. Separate immediate adjustments from changes requiring budget, procurement, or specialist assessment. Suggest respectful questions staff can ask about support preferences without requesting diagnoses. Include a way for volunteers to report barriers privately and receive a response. CONSTRAINTS Do not claim legal compliance or diagnose individual needs. Avoid fabricated statistics and flag assumptions. Treat lived-experience feedback as evidence without generalizing it to everyone. OUTPUT FORMAT Provide a barrier map, prioritized action table with owners and effort estimates, sample access questions, and a 30-day review plan. QUALITY CHECK Explain how each proposed change improves a specific participation step.
