Webskillet provides ongoing communications work for the National Domestic Workers Alliance, including maintaining their website, which was built by the good folks at Design Action Collective.
For their 2012 National Congress, we needed to have one central place on the web where members and allies could access a lot of complicated information, and also register for the Congress. We decided to create a mini-site so we could organize that information in a cleaner, more open layout than their main site, with a look and feel that was based on the main NDWA site yet distinct.
The Congress mini-site uses Javascript extensively to give it a dynamic, "app-like" feel. Lists of workshops are displayed or hidden by toggling buttons to the side of the program. The registration form first asks whether the site visitor is registering as a member organization or as an individual ally, and then displays different questions, while still collecting the information in the same place.
As a bonus, we built all Congress pages in HTML5 and optimized them for smartphones.
