I have been involved recently with a friend that has severe vision 
disabilities but is very eager to participate in zoom meetings.

With a little coaching he has managed to sign in an listen.

Active participation is the next challenge.  Zoom does have some 
features to help with this.

Another less high tech option would be to have a designated co-host that 
can assist users who request assistance.

It would help if some volunteers could look into these issues and be 
prepared to offer more detailed advice or where it is available.
