Access Board Working Group on Accessible Drug Labels to Hold First Meeting



A stakeholder working group organized by the Access Board to develop best 
practices for making drug labels accessible will hold its first meeting 
January 10 and 11 in Washington, D.C. The working group, which includes 
representatives from advocacy organizations and industry, will explore 
alternatives for making information on prescription drug container labels 
accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired or who are elderly. 
The meeting, which will be held at the Board’s Conference Center, will be 
open to the public.



Further details, including the meeting agenda, are posted on the Board's 
website. For more information, contact Susan Crawford at 
crawford at access-board.gov, (202) 272-0029 (v), or (202) 272-0082 (TTY).
