The Michigan Advocacy Program (MAP) and the Legal Services National Technology Assistance Project (LSNTAP) are excited to be working with Just-Tech to help advance the use of technology by legal aid programs across the country. Working closely with MAP/LSNTAP through the end of 2022, Just-Tech will be providing technical assistance, webinars, and technology-focused toolkits to help legal aid programs leverage technology to increase access to justice for disadvantaged communities.
The webinar is Language Access Strategies for Legal Aid Websites and will look at some of the topics surrounding removing language as a barrier to access online content. We will cover topics including maintaining multilingual content, where machine translation fits into the translation workflow, and how are people with limited English currently using online resources. We don’t have the solid takeaways like in the phishing webinar but there were a few interesting points we discussed.
The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland created this toolkit to support programs that want to use text messaging to gather outcome data following limited scope legal services. Legal service providers, statewide websites and court self-help centers offer self-represented litigants (SRL) help in a variety of ways with a wide range of problems. These limited services include advice at clinics, help filling out forms, and recommendations about enforcing rights and responsibilities.

Executive Summary
Why Test for Usability?
Usability testing will save staff time, money and administrative overhead by defining what users need, how they find information and what information they are searching for. By listening to users, understanding how they interact with your site or tool, and responding to the needs users actually articulate programs can avoid spending unnecessary time and resources and better serve their users.
What to Test - Site goals, user tasks, testing scripts and metrics
When conceptualizing a website we rarely articulate what users must do, instead, we focus on what our site does.
When to Test - Beginning, Middle and End
Usability testing is a priority when launching a new project, and it is vital to test your interface at each level of the design process.
You should conduct user testing when:
Creating or redesigning a site;
Changing the goals of your site (i.e.:, adding donation capacity to your site);
Who to Test - Participants
The idea of finding individual participants to test your site can be overwhelming and a stumbling block to routine user testing. However you do not need hundreds of testers to obtain good information.
The Nielson Norman group indicates that 5 users can uncover 85% of the major usability issues, and 15 users can find 100%.*
