Training Centers for the Blind
Recommended Sites
- National Federation of the Blind The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of information that exist. If a blind person has proper training and opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a physical nuisance.
- NFB Mailing List intended for the sharing of information about, and discussion of the accessibility of various consumer electronics devices; such as MP3 players, cell phones, DVD players, receivers and other stereo and video components, satellite and HD radios, and household appliances including microwaves, washers, dryers, stoves, and the like; is appropriate and encouraged. With more and more devices having inaccessible controls or displays, a place to share information and experiences is needed.
- Tennessee Business Enterprises, or TBE as we like to call it, is one of the best-kept secrets around. It is a unique public/private partnership that enables independent business people to work in concert with the State of Tennessee to provide vending and other food services to customers across the Volunteer State. These business people just happen to be legally blind. Its mission is to provide entrepreneurial opportunities for legally blind citizens of our state who have been trained and licensed to manage food service and vending facilities. TBE is a unit within the Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired Section of the Department of Human Services. Active participation with a capital “A”, that is one of the secrets of success for TBE. Chairman Duane Cox, Director, Terry Smith.
- "Thru Our Eyes.org" - a web site produced by the Northeast Chapter of the National Federation of the Blind of New Jersey. Their site is dedicated to those individuals who are blind, visually impaired or disabled.
