[Nfbmo] Barriers to Blind Employment

[Randy Carmack]

Jim,

I find that perspective employers are ignorant to the fact that a
blind or partially sighted employee can be just as productive, if not
more productive as their sighted counterparts with the use of the
proper accessibility aids.

Thanks,
Randy Carmack

Pleas state the barriers that you believe contribute to blind unemployment and possible solutions. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.
