Well, that sounds bad! Here in Texas, you can open a case six months after
moving here! I know some states like Louisiana run out of money at june or
something, they have to wait till the fall to get more money to run the
services! Do you havea perkins brailler or a slate and stylus? I know our
NLS program here in Texas used to lend the braillers out from the library!
Did you contact the local NFB chapter, it helps to have support to justify
what you need! You can get a free cane from the NFB. I know hadley gives
out free abacuses when you take the course but I don't know if they give out
slates or not! Heather

Hi Heather,
Thanks for answering. I have started a case with the State Department
and asked for cane and technology training. Of course, they claim they have
no money, and are turning almost everyone away. And all who are unable to
work in a paid job, which is most people, unless they live in a city, due to
transportation issues.
I do have Braille on my list of Hadley courses to take.
