Consistent infrastructure and wayfinding are best practices in design and construction and for user experience. When wayfinding or infrastructure is inconsistent, it's challenging for community members to use it, sometimes especially those with disabilities. When anyone feels unsafe or unsure about how to navigate, they are less likely to go out on their own and become isolated. We need to provide infrastructure that supports community members to remain active. Panelists will share their lived experience and engage the audience to share theirs and ask questions.
