Update direct reporting copy to "community responders"
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Background

The current IRS copy refers to report recipients as “community administrators.” This wording should be updated because it is not accurate for all recipient groups. Referring to all responders as "community administrators" could misrepresent who receives and handles the report, and may create inaccurate expectations for users.

We should update the relevant copy to use “community responders” instead.

Task

  • In the form submission page for direct reporting, change all references of "community administrators" to "community responders"
