<p dir="auto">Hi all,</p><p dir="auto"><br></p>
<p dir="auto">I\u2019m reaching out to identify guide dog users in Massachusetts who have experienced discrimination while using Paratransit, particularly if you were told by a dispatcher or track operator that they could not find you a driver because of your guide dog, or if you were treated differently in any way due to having a guide dog.<br></p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Al Elia, a board member of the National Association of Guide Dog Users (NAGDU), is gathering information to build a case addressing these ongoing issues. Firsthand accounts from guide dog users are essential to this effort.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>If you have experienced this or know someone who has, please feel free to reach out to me directly.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Thank you for your time and consideration.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p dir="auto">Best regards,</p>
<p>Isabel Rosario</p>
