application form. The application form does not support complex formatting,
so we recommend avoiding formatting such as bullet points and fonts/styles.

Effective January 1, 2022, the application form can be found at the
following link:
https://nfb.org/form/kenneth-jernigan-convention-scho?q=form%2Fkenneth-jerni
gan-convention-scho

The application will ask for the following information:

*	Contact information: Include your full name and both your primary
phone where you can be contacted by your state president and your mobile
phone you might use at convention, if available.
*	Please include your mailing address and, if you have one, your email
address. If you don’t have an email address, please consider if there is a
friend or chapter member who might be able to assist with email
correspondence.
*	State Affiliate/chapter information: Include your state affiliate,
your state president, chapter, and chapter president, if you attend a
chapter.
*	Mentor information: Include your personal convention mentor and
provide that person’s phone number.

money you need from this fund to make this trip possible for you. We suggest
you consult with other members to make a rough budget for yourself.
*	Essay questions to explain why this is a good investment for the
NFB: 
*	How do you currently participate in the Federation?
*	Why do you want to attend a national convention?
*	What would you receive?
*	What can you share or give?
*	Any special circumstances you hope the committee will take into
consideration.

If you cannot apply online, you can still apply by writing a letter to your
state affiliate president answering the above questions. This letter should
be emailed to your state affiliate president. Once you have decided you will
apply, please contact your state president in person or by phone to request
his or her help in obtaining funding. Be sure to tell the state affiliate
president when to expect that your application will be submitted and mention
the deadline.

Once your application has been submitted, your application will be provided
to your state president via email. It is still your responsibility to
contact your affiliate president. He or she must email a president’s
recommendation directly to the Kenneth Jernigan Convention Scholarship Fund
Committee at kjscholarships at nfb.org <mailto:kjscholarships at nfb.org> . Your
president must email the recommendation no later than the deadline of April
15, 2022. If you have applied outside of the online form, the state
affiliate president must email both the recommendation and the application
letter.

Notification of Award

If you are chosen to receive this scholarship, you will receive a letter
with convention details that should answer most of your questions. The
committee makes every effort to notify winners by May 15, but you must do
several things before that to be prepared to attend if you are chosen:

*	Make your own hotel reservation. If something prevents you from
attending, you can cancel the reservation. (Yes, you may arrange for
roommates of your own to reduce the cost.)
*	Register online for the entire convention, including the banquet, by
May 31.
*	Find someone in your chapter or affiliate who has been to many
conventions and can answer your questions as a friend and mentor.
*	If you do not hear from the committee by May 15, then you did not
win a scholarship this year.

Legislative Initiatives for 2022:

ACCESS TECHNOLOGY AFFORDABILITY ACT

(H.R. 431/S. 212)

Issue—The cost of critically needed access technology is out of reach for
most blind Americans.

The high cost of access technology creates a difficult economic reality.
Most access technology ranges from $1,000 to $6,000. For example, a leading
screen reader is $900, a popular Braille notetaker is $5,495, one model of a
refreshable Braille display is $2,795, and a moderately priced Braille
embosser is $3,695. According to the United States Census Bureau 69.1
percent of blind Americans are either unemployed or underemployed.1
Consequently, most blind Americans do not have sufficient financial
resources needed to purchase these items.2 These financial barriers can
ultimately lead to a loss of employment, insufficient education, or even
isolation from community activities.

Medical insurance will not cover the cost of access technology. Current
definitions of "medical care," "medical necessity," and "durable medical
equipment" within common insurance policies do not include access
technology. These definitions were adopted in the 1960s “when medical care
was viewed primarily as curative and palliative, with little or no
consideration given to increasing an individual's functional status.”3 Many
states’ Medicaid programs and individual health insurance plans have adopted
similar definitions and likewise will not cover the cost of access
technology.4

Access technology enables blind Americans to participate in today’s
workforce. Blindness is well-defined and measurable,5 but affects each
person differently and at different ages. Since individuals’ needs differ,
manufacturers have designed various tools that enable each blind American to
perform tasks that they were once unable to accomplish themselves due to
their blindness. Braille notetakers are frequently used in schools,
screen-reading software allows workers to check their email at home, and
screen-magnification software can help seniors losing vision learn about
community activities. Access technology equips blind Americans to seek
employment and stay employed. For the 69.1 percent of blind Americans who
are either unemployed or underemployed, it is a vehicle that facilitates the
job seeking process. Despite this critical need, public and private entities
struggle to meet consumer demand.6 This leads to untimely delays in the
delivery of necessary technology and ultimately harms the blind consumer.

Solution—Access Technology Affordability Act (H.R. 431/S. 212):

Makes access technology more affordable so that blind Americans can procure
these items for themselves. It establishes a refundable tax credit for blind
Americans in the amount of $2,000 to be used over a three-year period to
offset the cost of access technology. The credit created by the Access
Technology Affordability Act will sunset after five years and will be
indexed for inflation.

Provides flexibility for individuals to obtain access technology based upon
their specific needs. Accessibility requires an individualized assessment of
one’s own skills and needs. Therefore, blind Americans should be given the
opportunity to procure access technology on their own to ensure that they
are receiving the tools that are most useful for them.

Will increase federal income tax revenue. More blind Americans working means
more people paying taxes. It also means that those blind Americans who
obtain gainful employment through this tax credit will no longer need to
draw from federal programs such as Supplemental Security Income or Social
Security Disability Insurance and will instead be paying into the Social
Security Program. 

GOAL—IMPROVE AFFORDABILITY OF CRITICALLY NEEDED ACCESS TECHNOLOGY NECESSARY
FOR EMPLOYMENT AND INDEPENDENT LIVING.

MEDICAL DEVICE NONVISUAL ACCESSIBILITY ACT (H.R. 4853) Issue—Inaccessible
digital interfaces prevent blind individuals from independently and safely
operating medical devices that are essential to their daily healthcare
needs.  

Medical devices with a digital interface are becoming more prevalent and
less accessible for blind Americans. The rapid proliferation of advanced
technology is undeniable. Most new models of medical devices, such as
glucose and blood pressure monitors, along with the emergence of in-home
devices that offer medical care options, such as chemotherapy treatments and
dialysis, require consumers to interact with a digital display or other
interfaces. This new technology has been and continues to be developed and
deployed without nonvisual accessibility as an integral part of the design
phase, which creates a modern-day barrier. The inaccessibility of these
medical devices is not a mere inconvenience; if accessibility for blind
consumers is omitted from the medical technology landscape, the health,
safety, and independence of blind Americans will be in imminent danger.

Telehealth currently makes up 20 percent of all medical visits, and more
healthcare providers are looking to expand telemedicine services.1
Unfortunately, these visits assume that a person has easy access to
accessible medical devices in order to take their own vitals. As a result of
inaccessibility, blind and low-vision Americans are at a distinct
disadvantage when it comes to receiving the same virtual healthcare as their
sighted counterparts. 

Nonvisual access is achievable, as demonstrated by a number of mainstream
products. Apple has incorporated VoiceOver (a text-to-speech function) into
all of their products, making iPhones, Macbooks and Mac desktops, and iPads
fully accessible to blind people right out of the box. Virtually all ATMs
manufactured in the United States are accessible, and every polling place is
required to have a nonvisually accessible voting machine. Frequently, a
simple audio output or vibrotactile feature can make a product accessible at
little to no additional cost for manufacturers.

Current disability laws are not able to keep up with advancements due to the
expeditious evolution of medical technology and its incorporation into
medical devices. Although the Americans with Disabilities Act and other laws
require physical accessibility for people with disabilities (e.g.,
wheelchair ramps, Braille in public buildings), no laws protect the blind
consumer’s right to access medical devices. The National Council on
Disability concluded that accessibility standards lag behind the rapid pace
of technology, which can interfere with technology access.2 This trend of
inaccessibility will continue if accessibility solutions are ignored. Only a
fraction of medical device manufacturers has incorporated nonvisual access
standards into their product design, while others continue to resist these
solutions.

Solution—Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act (H.R. 4853):

Calls on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to promulgate nonvisual
accessibility standards for Class II and Class III medical devices. The FDA
will consult with stakeholders with disabilities and manufacturers and issue
a notice of proposed rulemaking no later than twelve months after the date
of enactment of the act. No later than 24 months after the date of enactment
of the act, the FDA will publish the final rule including the nonvisual
accessibility standards.

Requires manufacturers of Class II and Class III medical devices to make
their products nonvisually accessible. Manufacturers will have twelve months
following the publication of the final rule to ensure that all of the Class
II and Class III medical devices they produce are nonvisually accessible. 

Authorizes the FDA to enforce the nonvisual access standards for Class II
and Class III medical devices. Any manufactured device found to be out of
compliance, whether by a public complaint to the FDA or by an independent
FDA investigation, will be considered an adulterated product under the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.

GOAL—END UNEQUAL ACCESS TO MEDICAL DEVICES FOR BLIND AMERICANS.

Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act (H.R. 2373/S. 3238)

Promote competitive, integrated employment for people with disabilities.

Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act allows employers to
discriminate against people with disabilities. Passed in 1938, Section 14(c)
authorizes employers to pay workers with disabilities subminimum wages while
they perform mundane tasks that do not transfer into skills necessary to
transition to other employment options. This law only reinforces stigmatic
misconceptions of people with disabilities and creates an artificial barrier
to future employment opportunities. 

The misconception that the elimination of 14(c) will displace workers with
disabilities is based on speculation and rhetoric. A growing number of
employers have already stopped relying on Section 14(c) and have voluntarily
withdrawn their certificates. In 2011 420,000 people with disabilities were
paid subminimum wages under the 14(c) program. Today, only 39,386 people
with disabilities continue to receive subminimum wages.  During that same
time period (2011-2017), the employment rate for people with disabilities
has steadily increased every year from 33.4 percent to 37.3 percent.
Additionally, ten states have passed legislation limiting or barring the
payment of subminimum wages for people with disabilities. 

Bipartisan consensus supports the phase out of Section 14(c). The Republican
and Democratic parties’ 2016 platforms both called for an end to subminimum
wages for people with disabilities. In 2016 a committee tasked by Congress
to increase employment opportunities for people with disabilities also
recommended the phase-out of Section 14(c). In addition, in an October 2018
report, the National Council on Disability, an independent federal agency
charged with advising Congress, recommended “the phase out of Section
14(c).” Furthermore, in September 2020, the US Commission on Civil Rights
recommended that “Congress should repeal Section 14(c) with a planned
phase-out period to allow transition among service providers and people with
disabilities to alternative service models prioritizing competitive
integrated employment.”

The Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act (H.R. 2373/S.
3238):

Discontinues the issuance of new Special Wage Certificates. The Secretary of
Labor will no longer issue Special Wage Certificates to new applicants. 

Creates a grant program for states and individual 14(c) certificate holders
to assist with their transition to competitive, integrated employment. This
grant program will be available to all states and individual 14(c)
certificate holders who transition their business models to support
competitive, integrated employment for people with disabilities. States that
receive grants must establish an advisory committee that includes employers,
organizations specializing in employment for people with disabilities,
Medicaid agencies, AbilityOne contractors, people with disabilities, and
vocational rehabilitation agencies.

Creates a technical assistance center to support all 14(c) holders in their
transition to competitive integrated employment. Under the Department of
Labor, the technical assistance center will disseminate information about
best practices to facilitate transition of entities to competitive,
integrated employment.

Requires reporting and evaluation of the progress of creating and expanding
support for workers with disabilities. States and 14(c) certificate holders
will be required to report on their grant activities, evaluate changes in
employment for people with disabilities, report average wage information,
and evaluate employer actions taken to comply with the phase out of 14(c).

Sunsets Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Five years after
enactment of the TCIEA, employers will no longer be permitted to pay workers
with disabilities subminimum wages.

REMOVE ARTIFICIAL BARRIERS TO EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES.

TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY WEBSITES & APPLICATIONS ACCESSIBILITY ACT

Issue—Websites are required by law to be accessible, but without
implementing regulations, most businesses and retailers have little
understanding of what accessible means.

Websites and mobile applications are an essential part of modern living.
More than 313 million Americans use the internet, and 81 percent of
Americans say that they access the internet at least once each day. The need
to access websites and mobile applications doesn’t stop when it reaches
Americans with disabilities. According to the American Community Survey,
conducted by the United States Census Bureau, there are approximately forty
million Americans who currently have a disability. Based on the numbers
above, it is more than reasonable to assume that the vast majority of them
are trying to use websites and mobile applications. 

The Department of Justice announced its intention to publish accessible
website regulations more than a decade ago. On July 26, 2010, the twentieth
anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the
government published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking to address
website accessibility. After that initial announcement, no further action
was taken to substantially advance website accessibility. Without
regulations in place, blind and disabled Americans are not reliably able to
electronically access businesses, apply for jobs, and work at places due to
the barriers created by inaccessible websites and mobile applications.

The past few years have seen a significant increase in the prevalence of
so-called “click-by” lawsuits. Accessibility is readily achievable, but many
businesses that are required by law to make their websites accessible claim
to have no clear-cut definition of what “accessible” actually means.
Meanwhile, people with disabilities must cope with inaccessible websites.
ADA Title III lawsuits, which include website accessibility suits, hit
record numbers in 2019, topping 11,000 for the first time. The number of
lawsuits has been increasing steadily since 2013, when the figure was first
tracked. Businesses yearn for a clear definition of accessibility standards
and to be able to expand their potential customer pool to consumers they
were not reaching before. 

Solution—Twenty-First Century Websites & Applications Accessibility Act
will:

Direct the US Access Board to promulgate accessibility guidelines. The US
Access Board will have six months following the enactment of the legislation
to issue a notice of proposed rulemaking regarding website and mobile
application accessibility, then an additional six months to issue the final
rule. 

Promulgate guidelines that strive to harmonize with Section 508 standards.
The Section 508 standards promulgated by the US Access Board on January 18,
2017, are established regulations for website and technology accessibility.
Therefore, the guidelines promulgated by the Access Board should harmonize
with these standards. 

Authorize the Department of Justice and the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission to investigate the accessibility of websites and mobile
applications. Either of its own volition or via a logged complaint
pertaining to inaccessibility, the Department of Justice and the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission will have the authority to investigate
accessibility concerns and commence civil action if necessary. 

GOAL—END WEBSITE AND MOBILE APPLICATION INACCESSIBILITY

FOR BLIND AMERICANS.
