GOODGROUNDFIELD NOTES FOR COMMUNITY CARE
PARTICIPATION WITH CHOICE

Access is part of the plan, not an afterthought.

The fieldbook invites flexible roles, plain-language instructions, consent, adult-facilitated youth use, and respect for self-described needs.

Illustrated community learning scene

Six inclusion checks

Arrival

Share accurate timing, transport boundaries, entrance information, and whom an authorized participant should ask on site.

Understanding

Use plain language, demonstrations, visual cues, translation support, and time for questions where available.

Role choice

Offer seated, quiet, short-duration, low-sensory, setup, materials, or cleanup options without ranking them.

Rest and exit

Make breaks and leaving early acceptable; no one should have to disclose a diagnosis to pause.

Consent

Participation, photography, naming, story sharing, and transportation require separate, informed choices.

Feedback

Ask what would improve the setting without requesting health, disability, school, family, or financial records.

YOUTH BOUNDARY

Adult-facilitated, never app-matched

Youth may use age-appropriate content with a parent, guardian, educator, or other authorized adult. The app has no messaging, matching, attendance, youth profile, public leaderboard, or precise-location feature.

Real activities should use the host's consent, two-adult, transport, emergency, photo, and safeguarding processes.

Respectful limits

Goodground Fieldbook is not an accessibility certification, clinical assessment, special-education service, or substitute for direct conversation. Ask respectfully, provide choices, and honor the person's answer.
