Morning,
I got the following from another list I'm on and thought some might be
interested.

The National Rehabilitation and Training Center on Blindness and
Employment (NRTC) is recruiting people who are blind to participate in
a research project on the use of assistive technology in the
workplace.

We are recruiting people with blindness or low vision (age 21+) who
are working or interested in working to be part of a 5-year study
about AT use, particularly in the workplace. What AT do you most
commonly use? How do you decide whether to use a specific AT? What are
your AT challenges? What AT do you need that isn’t currently
available? We want to know YOUR thoughts and experiences!
Participation will involve completing multiple surveys to help us
determine how AT use is changing over time.

Why participate?
•	You’ll help identify gaps in AT – what is needed but not available,
which our technology company partners, including Microsoft, Google,
OrCam, Vispero, and Aira are interested in!
•	Findings will allow us to make recommendations for AT users, VR
professionals, AT specialists, and employers.
•	You’ll receive a small gift card after completing each survey and we
will share study results with you.

Want to have your voice heard and help us with our 5-year study?
