Hi, Rebecca!

Thank you so much for this pull request. Someone will be along to review it soon.

In the meantime, I've updated the Jira issue status to In Review so no one mistakenly creates a duplicate pull request.

It sounds like you've already created a Jira account, but Jira has been unreliable about showing us new accounts in the admin panel lately. Can you reply here or send an email to otw-coders@transformativeworks.org with the email address associated with your Jira account? Once you've done that, we should be able to set up the permissions for you to comment on, assign, and transition issues.

Thanks again for contributing! If you have any questions, you can contact us at the same email address listed above.
