Valley Braille Service, Inc. is a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 corporation (pending) dedicated to the production and distribution of the highest quality, most accurate Braille textbooks available anywhere in the world.

Our main goal is to increase the availability of Braille educational materials to blind children and adults across the country and, although challenging, to reduce the costs of high quality Braille materials to the visually impaired to ensure that blind adults and children have the materials they need to live a fuller life, regardless of financial status.

Valley Braille has nearly doubled in size each and every year since our inception 6 years ago, allowing that dream to come true. Each year more and more blind and visually impaired children and adults have books, both to enrich their lives, and to complete institutional curriculum so that nothing stands in the way of higher learning. Braille empowers the blind and visually impaired to refuse to accept societal and institutional boundaries.

Access to the general education curriculum is vital to all students and when textbooks arrive late or not at all, students with visual impairments miss out on educational opportunities. This is a national issue with complex fiscal, technological and political implications.

People who are blind or otherwise visually impaired need to gain access to Braille materials.

With the assistance of Braille materials such as maps, brochures, directories, menus, etc., adults can function remarkably well in the general population. This can make all the difference in the world for a blind adult determined to function independently, or for a blind child -- not only to become literate, but to have the opportunity to realize his or her full potential.

Braille textbooks are consistently behind in availability, meaning that, as hard as it is to believe, there are blind students all over America falling behind their sighted classmates and peers in gaining an education.

Neither the Congressional "Americans with Disabilities Act", nor the Presidential "No Child Left Behind" mandate, provide for effective means of providing the materials that disabled American children need to have a competitive education and take their place in the business and social mainstreams. Valley Braille Service, Inc. is doing our best to make that important difference in these lives and you can help.
