[Pibe-division] Bell for Adults

[I. C. Bray]

We could call it the ABLE program!

Adult Braille Education and Literacy Program!

I know of a school district that has told a parent that they don't want to 
teach the parents of blind children Braille because they are afraid that 
they will negatively influence the braille learning of their child.

Isn't  that the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard?----

: Hi, all,
: I had a great idea, something like the Bell program for adults. It 
wouldn't have all of the fun activities for the kids, but maybe something 
close. It would have to be something run by affiliates. I was touring my 
soon-to-be high school, and one of the Costodians said he was legally blind, 
and the rehab agency wouldn't teach him braille. He is trying to read the 
braille signs at the school. What do you think of the idea?
