Our team can leverage existing <br /> services through HopeSource Transportation and Central Transit's ADA Paratransit Service as a resource <br /> for those who have transportation limitations. <br /> Disability Barrier—The County will choose the most accessible in-person locations available to reduce <br /> barriers for attending in-person. Online opportunities will also be provided through the survey and most <br /> stakeholder meetings will include an online option, if possible. <br /> Computer Literacy Barrier— In-person opportunities to meet with the County will be provided during <br /> stakeholder meetings. In-person engagement will be designed without participants accessing a <br /> computer to mitigate potential computer literacy barriers. <br /> Digital Access Barrier- In-person opportunities to meet with the County will be provided during <br /> stakeholder meetings. In-person engagement will be designed without participants accessing a <br /> computer to mitigate potential barriers to digital access. <br /> Language Barrier—For stakeholder groups that require additional language or community services, the <br /> County will coordinate public meetings ahead to allow for participation. <br /> Childcare Barrier—By providing diverse opportunities to engage such as different time options, online <br /> opportunities, meeting people in their communities or online, provide family-friendly engagement <br /> opportunities.
