Hello everyone, please share this wherever appropriate.

 

If you have already contacted the NAGDU board, please be patient. We are working through the list of submissions diligently. Thank You

 

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 board at nagdu.org if you have any 

questions or to submit your video.
