[nabs-l] Issues with Kurzweil and applying for housing

[Ashley Bramlett]

Jennifer,
That's too bad they are not cooperating.  Do they not want you go obtain 
your own place?  Maybe they're just busy.  I think forms of this nature are 
best filled out with a trusted human reader.  They can place a signature 
guide where you need to sign as well.  So if your scanner won't read the 
text, look for another reader other than your dad.  Do you have readers from 
college?  Maybe they would work?  Other family members in the area?
If your rehab counselor is helpful maybe they would be a reader/scribe for 
you.
Another idea is to ask for the form in braille or another accessible format. 
That seems reasonable to me.  Then you can type your answers and use someone 
to write your answers on the form later.

I hope you can work it out.
Ashley
