Not yet. Theres one BIG BARRIER left.
Lack of affordable housing. 

WHAT IF...

  • Newly hired blind employees were able to transition into a new  job and a new home or apartment.

  • There was a way to purchase an apartment building or housing complex that could become a safe harbor for blind employees.

  • You could make all this a reality!
