The National Association of Guide Dog Users (NAGDU), a division of
the National Federation of the Blind (NFB), is collecting stories
from handlers who have been denied rides from Lyft and Uber drivers
in video form from October 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022. Our goal
is to put these videos together to present to the individual
rideshare companies to make them aware that blind people with
legitimate guide dogs and other service animals are still getting
denied by drivers all over the country. You do not have to be a
member of the NFB or NAGDU to submit a video. We ask that the videos
are filmed after a denial occurs, not during. Videos should be no
longer than one minute in length and should describe who you are and
the impact of the denial. I.E. did you miss a doctor’s appointment
or were you late to pick up your child from daycare? By submitting a
video, you are giving us permission to share your information with
Lyft and/or Uber. Please contact the NAGDU board of directors at
(346) 439-7444 or <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated

moz-do-not-send="true">board@nagdu.org</a> if you have any
questions or to submit your video.<br>
