Our community has a great mix of technical and non-technical individuals. We have a lot of Meetup attendees that run their business on WordPress or make money setting up and managing WordPress sites for clients. Our Meetup group has traveled to a handful of Northeast Ohio cities and is a great platform for new speakers. We&#8217;re a laid-back and supportive group that meets 1-2 times a month near the Cleveland and Akron areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2018, our community was <a href=\"https:\/\/2018.us.wordcamp.org\/2018\/12\/03\/community-spotlight-northeast-ohio\/\">featured at WordCamp US<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to keep a safe and welcoming environment, we require all speakers, sponsors, and attendees to follow our <a href=\"https:\/\/2020.kent.wordcamp.org\/code-of-conduct\/\">Code of Conduct<\/a>.
