 We now need to hear from blind people in New York who have shopped at the Container Store or have a desire to shop there in the future.  Please contact NFB attorney Tim Elder at telder at trelegal.com<mailto:telder at trelegal.com> or 415.873.9199 if you have recently shopped at a Container Store or would like to shop in the store in the future.  NFB is preparing to certify a class action in this matter.  We need your help to advocate for equal access to touchscreen devices in physical stores.

Thanks for your help with this matter.
