The Incident Response Team is looking for new members

We’re expanding the Incident Response Team (IRT) and are looking for new contributors to join us.

The mission of the IRT is to provide a clear channel for community members to report and address incidents that may violate the WordPress Community Code of Conduct, ensuring a safe and respectful environment for all participants.

If you’re committed to fostering a respectful community and have experience in community moderation, conflict resolution, or DEIB practices, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply here

You can also open the application form using the following link: https://wordpressdotorg.survey.fm/wordpress-incident-response-team-%E2%80%93-application-form
Applications will remain open until July 6, 2025.

Selected members will receive dedicated training and onboarding.

To create more opportunities for involvement and bring in fresh perspectives over time, we’re also planning to introduce a rotation system. So if now isn’t the right time or you’re not selected, there will be more chances to join in the future.

If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment or reach out to any of the current members: @katiejrichards, @kcristiano, @aaroncampbell, @devinmaeztri, @adityakane, @harishanker, @4thhubbard, @piyopiyofox, @_dorsvenabili, @peiraisotta, @sippis, @unintended8, @webtechpooja.

Thank you for helping us strengthen our community!

Props to the IRT members who reviewed this post.
