Hi Cricket,

NFB is hoping to connect with additional blind Los Angeles Community
College District (LACCD) students as a part of our continued effort to
address access barriers within the District. Could you and the CABS
board encourage any current or soon-to-be LACCD students to contact me
(vyingling at nfb.org<mailto:vyingling at nfb.org> or 410-659-9314,
extension 2440) and/or send me their names and contact information?

In case it's helpful, I've crafted a brief announcement regarding this outreach:

The National Federation of the Blind is seeking current Los Angeles
Community College District (LACCD) students or individuals who plan to
enroll for the 2019 spring semester. Last year, the NFB filed suit
against LACCD<https://nfb.org/national-federation-blind-and-two-blind-students-file-suit-against-los-angeles-community-college>
for its failure to provide blind students with accessible
instructional materials and other accommodations, and we continue to
press for full accessibility for LACCD's blind students. If you are a
current or soon-to-be LACCD student, we need to hear from you. Please
contact Valerie Yingling, legal program coordinator at the NFB, at
vyingling at nfb.org<mailto:vyingling at nfb.org> or 410-659-9314, extension
2440.
