Take the AFB Barriers to Digital Inclusion Survey before December 15!

Hi All


Taking a survey might just NOT be on the top of anyone's mind as we all whirl through December. However, in RantWoman's experience, surveys from the American Council of the Blind are nearly always worth one's time. 


Take this on before December 15, 2022



You can now respond to AFB's Barriers to Digital Inclusion research survey until December 15. 

Are you blind, deafblind, or do you have low vision? 

Do you use assistive technology like screen magnification, a screen reader or a braille display?

If you said “yes” to these questions, then the American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) invites you to fill out our accessible online survey. Specific survey topics include:

  • The mainstream and assistive technology you use.

  • How you learned to use assistive technology.

  • How you stay up-to-date about new accessibility features and upgrades.

  • Any accessibility challenges you encounter while using websites or mobile applications.

  • The strategies you use to overcome accessibility challenges with websites and mobile apps.

The survey should take about 30-45 minutes to complete. You will have the opportunity to enter a raffle to win one of 15 $25 Amazon gift cards.

We’ll use what we learn from this survey to:

  • Help inform technology companies so they can make their products more accessible and improve training opportunities.

  • Support our advocacy efforts to promote full digital inclusion.

TAKE THE SURVEY

If you have any questions or need more information please contact Dr. Arielle Silverman, AFB Director of Research, asilverman@afb.org or 202-469-6832.

The survey will close on Thursday evening, December 15, at 11:59 Pacific time.


The American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) mobilizes leaders, advances understanding, and champions impactful policies and practices using research and data. AFB’s mission is to expand pathways to leadership, education, inclusive technology, and career opportunities to create a world of no limits for people who are blind, deafblind, or have low vision.
