    Description

    Equal Access Public Media (EAPM) and its properties (the EAPM Style and Accessibility Guide and The Word magazine) are seeking social media volunteers to write posts, create images, and film content for social media posts.

    EAPM's mission is to make news and newsrooms more accessible.

    What does it mean to make news accessible? We aim to remove the barriers that keep disabled people and those who may not identify as disabled but may need accessible tech or accommodations such as people who are chronically ill; blind; deaf; deafblind; neurodivergent; caregivers; veterans with injuries or illness; have mental health differences; have learning differences; or are have low literacy away from news. As we like to say, we believe in #NewsForAll.

    Who are you?

    • Someone who loves social media.
    • A person familiar with accessibility best practices such as alt text and captions.
    • A person who wants to help spread our mission.

    We are eager to have many social media volunteers help us come up with fresh ideas. At this time, EAPM posts mainly on Bluesky, where we have accounts for EAPM and for each of our projects, and on LinkedIn.

    You can find us on Bluesky at

    and on LinkedIn at

    We are also on YouTube and TikTok, where we are looking to expand our content and reach.
