Subject: [Nfb-seniors] Social Security Website accessibility


Below is a message from Ali Harper.  She explains who she is and how her 
law firm is working with the NFB to determine how accessible the Social 
Security website is.  Can we, as blind users, get meaningful 
information?  Are we finding out what we want to know?  Whether our 
experience is good or bad she wants to know about it.  If you are 
willing to help please let her know.

The NFB is looking into the accessibility of the Social Security 
Administration's website (www.ssa.gov).  We are looking for individuals 
who either have used, tried to use, or would have reason to use this 
website, for example, to apply for retirement or disability benefits, 
check one's status if already a recipient or applicant for benefits, to 
seek general information about social security benefits, or any other 
reason.  The website has a lot of important information, and we want to 
ensure it's accessible.  If you'd like to help us better understand how 
accessible this website is, please contact Alli Harper at 
ah at browngold.com, a Brown, Goldstein & Levy attorney working with the 
NFB on this issue.



Thanks so much, Alli
