Meeting: Demo with US Digital Corps, Q&A Input

[AlexBornkesselUSDS]

Description

A fellow with the USDC suggested we should share our tools during one of their biweekly meetings. Per the fellow, USDC is also wanting to elevate equity in the full USDC experience and in its delivery work. Per fellow, a majority of USDC fellows are currently assigned to projects where they are working with USDS teams already.

Desired outcomes:

• Secure USDC input and sponsorship of the toolset, in prep for v1 launch
• Use as a backdoor avenue to reach and secure adoption from USDSers via USDC, since they are currently working together on multiple projects

Consultation Notes

TBD. Please be sure to include date and time in bold so we can capture notes across the evolution of the conversations if needed

Acceptance Criteria

1. Share about the tools
