Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

>> Project Empowered Employment: A Tech Center Empowering blind persons to gain employment based on qualifications not perceived abilities. Give blind people
>> access to technology industry employment based on their degrees, credentials and experience. Design a model that others can follow across the nation. Commtech
>> USA wants to be the first to hire, staff and prove that the blind and disabled can be employed in every aspect of tech! Including Sales, Repair, diagnostics,
>> engineering and much more.
>>
>> These days it's no big deal to browse the internet to find a job in your field you are qualified for, go through the application process and write a cover letter and a resume, with ease and confidents on one's computer or mobile device.
>> It's no wonder the technology has found its way into the workplace, where professionals use their education, experience and background to be efficient at their PC, but blind people and
>> Others with disabilities must have more education, more experience and work twice as hard if not more for a convenience everyone else takes for granted. Project Empowered Employment plugs right into today's leading screen readers
>> To provide blind and otherwise disabled people using background, degrees/credentials an experience as efficient as everyone else can and should.
>> Please help us close the gap
>> Between qualified blind professionals and empowering technology employment.
>>
>> Upon its opening, Project Empowered Employment will hire train and employ a staff of technology qualified individuals who are blind. Blind persons will be recruited based on background, experience, qualifications and credentials. Will be given the opportunity to work in an all-inclusive fully accessible technology center that focuses on tech support, training, web development and other related areas. As well as be given the opportunity to branch out in to other fields such that garnered contracts will provide.

> Uber and Lift are very prominent, rapid and user friendly. There pick-up

> Cleveland. I reside downtown and travel for work and activities in the areas
> that you stated.
>
> University Circle is a busy area, due to both large hospitals; Cleveland

> Museums, shopping and restaurants circle the University area. The Cleveland
> Sight Center, many Churches and living quarters are there as well. And,
> Euclid Ohio is just up the street from University Circle.

> $2.50 each way. It travels from county-line to county-line; including
> suburbs of Euclid, Parma, Bedford, Garfield, Beachwood, Cleveland Heights,
> Middleburg Heights and many more. The service accommodates many wide spread
> areas. I do not think you will have difficulty obtaining service. However,
> if there is no regular service that travels to an area, this is when you

>
> We also have a private driver in Cleveland, name Wayne. He is reliable and
> blind friendly. He is a member of the Cuyahoga Chapter. Wayne has
> transported many NFB members from several Chapters throughout the state.
>
> Finally we have a train service that runs around 15 minutes apart. It is
