About The Empty Lot

When it comes to an empty lot, everyone sees something different...

One person might see a park, someone else a parking lot, another person a high-rise or a strip mall. However, everyone still sees potential that best matches their priorities.

The Empty Lot was founded on the principle that one size does not always fit all. The perfect solution for five other organizations may not be the right fit for another; timing, pricing, implementation, size, culture… there are many factors to keep in mind.

It’s important to have an advocate with knowledge and experience that understands your organization and offers solutions that compliment your goals instead of forcing your goals to fit into a poor solution. At The Empty Lot, we see every opportunity as a responsibility

ADA Compliance

While ADA stands for the Americans with Disabilities Act, many nations have similar requirements, standards, and recommendations.

As a recognized expert on these standards, The Empty Lot is widely respected for her awareness and adherence to WCAG 2.1 and its three levels.

Equity, diversity, and inclusion are crucial considerations for training material design, development, and delivery. 

The Empty Lot is globally recognized as an expert in learning and development EDI standards and adjustments. 

DEI & Belonging (Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion)

Global Awareness

Adoption of both ADA compliance and EDI considerations lead into another field: global awareness.

With the world continuing to expand with global teams and audiences, maintaining both standards–and further expectations and considerations that arise from these–is more important than ever before.
