[NFBV-Potomac-Announce] FW: [Nfbnet-members-list] Blind and Low-Vision Participants Needed for Research Study on the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

[John Halverson]

Hello Colleagues,

I just completed the survey referenced below.  It is long but extremely comprehensive about Covid-19.

I recommend as many of you as possible consider taking the survey.  Unfortunately it closes Monday.

Thank you.

John

Subject: [Nfbnet-members-list] Blind and Low-Vision Participants Needed for Research Study on the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

AIRA, the National federation of the blind, Louisiana Tech, and many other entities in the field of blindness have developed a survey to explore the increased accessibility barriers due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Your feedback is needed. This survey may take thirty minutes or longer, but it is critical in understanding the additional impact COVID-19 is having on blind people.

All blind and low-vision adults, aged eighteen and older, are encouraged to participate in this survey to provide information on the impact of COVID-19 on your life in the areas of healthcare; transportation; employment; education; social experiences; access to meals, food, and supplies; and voting. You can take the Flattening the Accessibility Curve survey<https://flatteninaccessibility.com/> until April 13, 2020, so don’t delay!

                        Lou Ann
