Good evening federation family, please take the time to complete the survey discussed below in this email. Also, I know that there are still some members that are not receiving emails from this list, so feel free to share it as far as wide as you would like with other blind people. Thank you.

Subject: [NCUEB] Survey: Flattening the Inaccessibility Curve



Hello, 

The major organizations across the country who work with blind and visually impaired adults are collaborating on a survey of the needs, concerns, and access to information for individuals who are blind. Please take this survey if you fit this criteria. Please share with your students, consumers, or family members who fit this criteria. This information will be used to help improve access to information and direct policy decisions.

 

Participate in a study investigating experiences of adults who are blind or have low vision during the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey covers areas of healthcare; transportation; employment; education; social experiences; access to meals, food, and supplies; and voting. Thank you for helping flatten the inaccessibility curve.
