AFB TECHAFB TECH addresses two of the most critical issues facing the ten million Americans who are blind or visually impaired through the following programs and activities: Technology/Product Evaluation: AFB TECH develops information, through analysis, evaluation, and laboratory product testing, on a broad range of everyday and emerging devices. Evaluations are published in AFB's AccessWorld: Technology and People With Visual Impairments as well as important related journals. AFB TECH works with software developers, web site designers, and hardware manufacturers to help them better understand and address the needs of those who are blind or visually impaired. Both assistive technology products, used by individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and mainstream technology products are evaluated by our expert staff. CareerConnect®: AFB TECH operates a web site and database of currently employed blind or visually impaired individuals, who offer mentorship and support to blind or visually impaired people entering the workplace or pursuing an educational goal. Information for parents, teachers, counselors, and employers is also provided, so they can better assist visually impaired people as they form and actualize their career plans.
