What position does ACB take regarding the inclusion of people with other disabilities in its advocacy efforts?
ACB advocates for full participation of all people with disabilities in society, though the organization does place greater emphasis on the specific issues faced by people who are blind and visually impaired. A proud history of coalition work has greatly benefitted the ACB with our most significant joint victory being the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Many ACB members have been or are currently working in the cross-disability fields of independent living, vocational rehabilitation and governmental advocacy.
