Like me, you have likely been affected by the Equifax Data Breach!
Learn what to do now!
Equifax announced that there has been a data breach of their systems and approximately 143 million American Social Security #s. Most of the consumer information accessed includes names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses, and in some instances, driver’s license numbers.
To my surprise, I was ON THE LIST! Read our latest blog post to learn how you can check if you are also potentially impacted and what steps you, your family and your team are advised to take to minimize the potential impact of the breach.
https://www.tech2success.com/equifax-data-breach/
Here is a link to the Federal Trade Commission too, I reviewed it both have basically the same information. I followed the process and was told my information was likely breached. It’s worth it to check and try to protect yourself.

**3 Cullen & Associates Session Update from September 6th
After years of study and discussion, a compromise agreement to reform school funding in Illinois was approved in Special Session last week and has been signed into law. SB 1947 (Manar/Davis) (PA 100-465) represents a bipartisan accord that creates an “evidence-based” funding formula that considers a local districts resources, as well as current state levels of funding, in future state funding allocations. The bill also creates a private school scholarship program, provides charter school parity, and establishes a continuing appropriation for Chicago Public Schools pension costs, among other things.
The House Human Services Committee met in Chicago last Thursday to consider legislation that would allow certain MCOs to participate in providing Medicaid managed care services, despite not receiving awards under the current RFP process. HFA#1 to SB 1707 (Raoul/G. Harris) would encourage HFS to utilize not-for-profit and minority-owned managed care organizations to provide Medicaid managed care services and requires the State to remove barriers to their participation. The bill also exempts organizations from the procurement process that were active in providing care at the time the RFP was published. As you’ll recall, the RFP process was drafted narrowly to prevent Family Health Network (FHN), a not-for-profit MCO, from participating in the Cook County-only bid. Further, Next Level, a minority-owned company responding under the minority-owned solicitation for Cook County only, was not selected.
Senator Bill Brady was sworn in last week as Republican Leader. Brady replaces former Senator Christine Radogno who resigned July 1st.
Retirement announcements continue, as State Representative Brandon Phelps (D) resigned his office effective last Friday. Representative Dan Beiser (D) and Representative Sara Wojcicki Jimenez (R) also recently announced that they will not seek re-election next year.
Both Chambers adjourned to the call of the presiding officer. An official veto session calendar has not been released. The Illinois General Assembly traditionally convenes in October and/or November to consider action on Gubernatorial vetoes.

Dear Fellow Federationists:
After thirteen years of legislative and regulatory advocacy, as of Tuesday, September 5, 2017, the Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Act and the associated regulations are now final. This is a tremendous accomplishment for all of us, and is a demonstration of our collective passion, tenacity, and determination. These regulations will help us live the safe and independent lives we want.
Having said that, Congress is back in session with the House scheduled for twelve legislative days in September, and the Senate scheduled for seventeen.
Our first call to action relates to the ADA Education and Reform Act. The House Judiciary Committee plans to vote on this bill (referred to as a markup) on Thursday, September 7. Please call Chairman Goodlatte and urge him to postpone this vote until the appropriate research can be done and a better solution proposed. For more information, read President Riccobono's letter to Chairman Goodlatte. Chairman Goodlatte can be reached at (202) 225-5431. As written, this bill will significantly undermine our rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Our next most critical issue is the Access Technology Affordability Act (ATAA) (H.R. 1734/S. 732). Both the President and Congress are putting substantial focus on tax reform, thereby increasing the likelihood that the ATAA has the potential to be included in any such overall tax reform. The best way for us to increase this potential is by building cosponsor support for both the House and Senate bills. As a result, please contact your representative and your two senators to urge them to cosponsor H.R. 1734 in the House and S. 732 in the Senate. We will be updating you on AIM HIGH, the Marrakesh Treaty, the TIME Act, Space Available, and the Self-Drive Act in subsequent legislative alerts.
A short summary of each bill is included below. I have also included a list of all the current cosponsors. The best way to contact your member of Congress is to call the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask for the office in question. Emailing your member of Congress is also a good idea. If you do so, please copy JPare at nfb.org <mailto:JPare at nfb.org> .
Thanks for all you do!
Warm regards,
John Paré

The National Federation of the Blind and Two Blind Individuals File Lawsuit Against SSA for Lack of Accessible Kiosks
San Diego, California (August 28, 2017): Today, the National Federation of the Blind and two blind individuals who receive Social Security benefits filed a federal lawsuit against the Social Security Administration (SSA) for its failure to make its Visitor Intake Processing touchscreen kiosks accessible to its blind visitors. As a result, blind patrons are unable to check in independently at their local SSA field offices, and are forced to divulge private information, such as their social security numbers, to SSA staff or other sighted third parties to assist them. In addition, they cannot read the printed ticket generated by the kiosks, which contains their check-in number, so they must ask someone else to read the number or risk losing their appointment.
The Individual Plaintiffs
Lisa Marie Irving is a blind recipient of Social Security benefits and visited her local SSA office in La Mesa, California on May 4, 2017. In attempting to check in, Ms. Irving found that the Braille instructions were located on the side of the kiosk in an awkward position, making them impossible to read. She could not locate any keypad connected to the kiosk, and there were no audio instructions. Ms. Irving had encountered these same problems at least twice before on previous visits. “It was not only frustrating, but made me dread coming to the SSA office. I always felt rushed by the security guard and was never allowed to try and read the Braille instructions and check in independently. I had to rely on him to always check me in and had to provide my social security number in a crowded environment. It made me feel very insecure.”
Amy Bonano is also a blind recipient of SSA benefits. She last visited her local SSA field office in Dayton, Ohio in February of 2017 to report her wages and deliver her paystubs. The kiosk had no Braille or audio instructions, no headphone jack, and no keypad. Ms. Bonano had to ask the security guard to enter her information for her. Because she could not read the number on her printed ticket, she relied on the security guard to tell her what her number was so she could report to the service window. The security guard read the check-in number incorrectly, so Ms. Bonano was forced to ask other visitors to read her ticket for her. “I felt very uncomfortable giving out my private information to a stranger in a public place, and now I dread going back to my local SSA office. I don’t understand why an accessible kiosk has not been installed yet when the software for such touchscreen technology exists today. It exists in the common iPhone, which has a touchscreen. It can definitely be done here.”
Further Background
Hundreds of thousands of blind US residents interact with the SSA each year. The SSA uses touchscreen kiosks at its field offices throughout the country. Touchscreen devices like those used by SSA can easily be made accessible; similar kiosks, as well as automated teller machines, are already accessible to the blind via audio output through a headphone jack and input with a tactile keypad. In addition, the iPhone and many other touchscreen smart phones are fully accessible to blind users. The lawsuit alleges that the use of these inaccessible kiosks violates Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
Approved Quotes for This Release
“It is critical that blind people are afforded not only equal access to government services and information, but equal respect for their privacy as well,” said Mark Riccobono, President of the National Federation of the Blind. “Forcing blind Social Security beneficiaries to divulge their social security numbers, which are portals to other sensitive personal and financial information, in the crowded reception areas of SSA field offices is not acceptable, and the National Federation of the Blind will not tolerate such unlawful discrimination.”
“This issue highlights a systemic concern in the blind community regarding digital accessibility,” said Jonathan Smith, Executive Director of the Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs. “Businesses, federal agencies, and medical facilities are increasingly switching to online mediums and kiosks to minimize staff. These spaces also need to be accessible, as they are treated by the public as places of public accommodation. Digital accessibility is not difficult to achieve, as many may assume.”
“The SSA needs to allow blind individuals the same privacy and independence afforded to anyone else visiting their offices,” said Autumn Elliott, a lawyer with Disability Rights California. “The SSA cannot allow check-in kiosks or other new technology to become barriers to access for people with disabilities.”
“In 2017, no federal agency, and certainly not one whose mission includes serving individuals with disabilities, should be using inaccessible technology in its offices,” said Jessie Weber, an attorney with Brown, Goldstein & Levy, LLP. “Requiring blind individuals to obtain sighted assistance before they can meet with a Social Security representative is unacceptable and unlawful.”
For Further Information
The case was filed on behalf of the plaintiffs in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of California (Case No. 3:17-cv-01730-BAS-KSC) by Brown Goldstein & Levy LLP of Baltimore, MD, the Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs, and Disability Rights California.

**7 This week on Eyes On Success
1737 Starting a New Podcast (Sep. 6, 2017)
When Terri and Greg Thrower decided to launch a podcast exploring the
challenges of navigating the world as a blind person, they contacted EOS
hosts Nancy and Peter Torpey to ask for advice. Their questions went way
beyond the mechanics and into many interesting topics. This week's episode contains our answers.
1738 Accessible Trails and Blind Birding (Sep. 13, 2017)
Many outdoor trails have been made so that they can now be enjoyed by people of varying abilities. Hosts Nancy and Peter Torpey talk with Jerry Berrier, a blind nature enthusiast, and Lucy Gertz of the Mass Audubon Society about what constitutes an accessible trail, how they are developed, and how they can be enjoyed by the blind.
The audio and show notes can be found at:

Cloverhill – this is the exact information shared by Cloverhill
See attached Vending Recovery Plan. This is a 13 week plan of what the Production Team can make barring any setbacks. So far we have seen much better fill rates the past week. Please share this info with your Sales Personnel, Customers and Distributors. 2 key points to make when discussing this plan …..1. that this plan is predicated on a minor amount of service disruption. If we see heavier than normal break downs, employee turn-over, etc…..this plan will not be accurate. Also, 2. this plan is based on pre-event volume. Excessive ordering by one Distributor/Customer will have an effect on fill rates to other Distributors/Customers. Net, net this plan shows we should be back to 94% fill rate by 11/20. Note on the Recovery Plan there are several items that are not scheduled to be produced during the 13 week plan.
*The Vending Recovery Plan is attached in three screen shots the Excel file did not save correctly, If you need help reading it let me know. I will likely get a replacement Excel file.
