[BlindTlk] Decline of Hadley

[Cindy Ray]

yes, I am very disappointed in the route Hadley has taken. I can use the website, but there is pretty much nothing I want. I was crushed when they took off the Spanish chat. It was quite popular. Most of the things on there people can get other places, and for language, real braille, and math, etc. It's toast. I've thought to ask about it, and maybe I will.

They used to offer excellent courses in many subjects including getting a GED! Over the last few years things have changed considerably. Their courses are no longer available, their website has become much more difficult to navigate and the only thing they offer now or monthly discussion groups.  In addition they only have four braille instructors rather than 10. They have also spent millions of dollars renovating an old building it would’ve been cheaper to simply rebuild from scratch.
