[BlindKid] Blind and low-vision youth and young adults needed for field testing of employment app

[Carlton Anne Cook Walker]

The below research participant solicitation is being provided for
informational purposes only. The National Federation of the Blind has no
involvement in this research, but we believe that it may contribute to our
research mission.



The NRTC on Blindness & Low Vision at Mississippi State University is now
recruiting for field test participants for a new app project, 4to24,
designed to help parents and youth focus on employment. The app provides
information, resources, and activities that will help youth build
independence and skills for employment as an adult.



We are seeking parents of youth with blindness or visual impairment who are
age 4 to 24, and youth with blindness or visual impairment who are age 16
to 24, to participate in a study using the app for a 6-month period.



Attached to this email is a recruitment flyer that tells more about our app
project and how it can benefit parents and youth. If you or someone you
know may be interested in learning more, please see the attached flyer, or
