## Announcements (3/3)
Making posters accessible
- Keep in mind whether the font and color contrast will be visible when the poster is printed.
- Text size: Bigger is better!
- Ideally, the title is 158 point;
- Section headings are 56 point;
- Body text is 36 point;
- Figure captions & footnotes are 24 point.
- If you use smaller fonts, we will make a judgement call on readability.
- You should also provide a QR code next to each image that provides ALT text for that image.

.quote[Hurricane Helene shut down four North Carolina prisons due to severe damage. Many incarcerated people at these prisons suffered days without running water or electricity... [now there is] overcrowding and understaffing, which have an especially negative impact on individuals with disabilities who require assistance with activities of daily living and medical and mental health care.]

Yet such changes often fail to account for accessibility concerns (e.g. straws; inhalers) What priorities do these campaigns reflect?
???
Incarcerated people report sleeping on the floor in gymnasiums with little to no access to communication with loved ones, reduced food rations, unreliable access to medical and mental health attention, and increased tension and violence. Overcrowding and understaffing

- post-study survey, “what could help you take more green trips”
- Reliable transportation (76.8%)
- Financial incentives (71.4%)
- Knowledge about alternatives (56%)
- future designs could suggest alternative forms of transit based on trip history
- recommendations could also come in form of neighborhood:
- “42% of the people who live in your neighborhood and work in Capitol Hill take the bus.”
