We have designed the event with reflection on your requested accommodations to include:
 

• Closed captioning will be available on all plenary mainstage and virtual breakout sessions. We are currently exploring options for providing CART services during the in-person breakout sessions and will share further details once they are confirmed.

 

• Microphones will be used to amplify sound during mainstage content, within breakout sessions, and during any programming at the receptions.
   

• Large Print copies of the agenda and content descriptions are available upon special request at the reception/hospitality desk if the content in the Whova app is inaccessible.
   

• A low-sensory room to watch the mainstage content will be available on-site.
   

• Dietary needs noted on registration influenced all the menu choices throughout the event. While there should be something for everyone at each meal/snack - please review the ingredient lists on display to ensure your specific allergens are not listed before enjoying. We ask that you refrain from bringing outside food into conference spaces - especially ground nuts (peanuts) and shellfish as these commonly have severe allergic reactions via exposure even without ingestion.

​

• Children & Child Care: While the Unity Summit is unable to provide group childcare, we invite you to share your interest in child care resources as you register. We will share a list of local childcare providers with anyone who indicates interest in registration, and include the resources in the app. You can choose to engage these child care providers or find your own. Due to limited capacity and resources, and to support the fullest engagement of all attendees while minimizing disruptions, all formal programming (such as plenaries, breakout sessions, and meals) is for registered attendees only. We kindly ask that children do not attend plenaries, breakout sessions, or meals. 
   

• Getting Around: Please allow time to move between locations - our schedule has been designed with this in mind. Refer to the maps in Whova under Resources > Logistics, or click on the location in any session for a visual guide. You can also ask for assistance from our Wayfinder Volunteers or the Registration & Hospitality Desk.
