Every Slide: Creating Inclusive, Impactful Presentations for Every Audience
with
Julia Hunter
Learning Manager, Nonprofit Association of WA
Summary:
Is your message connecting with everyone in the room—or unintentionally leaving some out?
From visible disabilities to non-apparent conditions like anxiety, PTSD, autism, or hearing and vision challenges, the diversity of your audience often goes unseen. Inclusive presentations aren’t just about good design, they’re about creating a space where everyone feels respected, welcomed, and able to engage.
Join Julia Hunter, Learning Manager at the Nonprofit Association of Washington (NAWA), for a high-impact session filled with practical tools, thoughtful strategies, and real-world examples. With years of experience leading statewide nonprofit learning programs, a background in teaching and grant writing, and a deep commitment to accessibility, Julia brings both expertise and passion to the conversation. Discover how small, intentional changes to your presentation style and materials can make a lasting impact on inclusion.
Whether you lead meetings, deliver training, pitch ideas, or build communications, this session will help you ensure your message reaches everyone.
Let’s build a culture where inclusion is part of every slide, every time!
