Dear Colleague,

October is Blindness Awareness Month, a time to increase awareness of the
challenges those in the blind and visual impaired community face. At Social
Security, we are committed to continuously improving our tools and resources
so all our customers can access our programs and services.

Recently, we installed new American with Disabilities Act compliant kiosks
in our local offices

enhance accessibility, particularly for people who are blind or have low
vision, include features such as:

*	Audio headphone jack sockets.
*	Braille instructions for how to use the kiosk, including how to
report any accessibility issues.
*	Accessible keypads.

We also offer different resources such as our webpage, If You Are Blind or
Visually Impaired
