Resource Human-Centered Design Forms

Local Government Form Improvements

This session from FormFest 2024 featured the work in Austin, Texas on criminal justice forms, and the South Bend, Indiana Animal Resource Center’s efforts to redevelop their animal adoption forms.

This video features two presentations from FormFest 2024.

The first presentation, titled “Creating equitable and accessible legal forms to address the justice gap” features designers from state and local courts who, using trauma-informed methods, aim to reduce administrative burdens and improve accessibility for all in the legal system.

The second presentation, titled “Improving the South Bend Animal Resource Center application” discusses how cats and dogs in South Bend now have an even better chance of finding their forever homes, thanks to the new and improved application experience at the South Bend Animal Resource Center (SBARC).
