Thank you for your interest in ensuring that Redbox kiosks are accessible to 
the blind. Because of the existing settlement agreement 
<http://dralegal.org/press/redbox-and-lighthouse-for-the-blind-dra-announces-settlement-agreement/> 
between Redbox and Lighthouse for the Blind, specific to Redbox kiosks in 
California, the NFB will not be able to engage California residents in our 
efforts towards ensuring access in the remaining forty-nine states. I was 
surprised by how many NFB of California members contacted me regarding 
Redbox. Please share your Redbox experiences and concerns directly with 
Stuart Seaborn or Michelle Ioria at Disability Rights Advocates, the firm 
that represented Lighthouse for the Blind. Stuart can be reach at 
sseaborn at dralegal.org <mailto:sseaborn at dralegal.org>  and Michelle at 
miorio at dralegal.org <mailto:miorio at dralegal.org> .



Sincerely,

Valerie

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



Make a gift to the National Federation of the Blind and help ensure all 
blind Americans live the lives they want.
