  2. Events (jwf, 14:11:07)
    1. Specificity is key - "disability day" won't attract people who don't see / identify as having a "disability", e.g. for deaf / hard-of-hearing communities (jwf, 14:12:34)
    2. === Event organizing strategy === (jwf, 14:39:37)
    3. Engaging with / reaching out to local tech communities that focus on underrepresented groups to save our time on organizing and bandwidth on creating custom events (jwf, 14:40:10)
    4. Examples: Women Who Code, Black Girls Code, etc. (jwf, 14:40:25)
    5. Benefits from working with community organizers with lots of experience in working with specific underrepresented groups (who are usually always looking for people to deliver free content / info), saves budget on us creating and executing entire events (meaning we can do more for less and ideally have similar impact) (jwf, 14:41:41)
