Bill Kurtis: For all students, regardless of disability, education's a right, not a privilege. Hello, I'm Bill Kurtis.
Imagine a classroom with no books, or a classroom where all textbooks are written in a code you can't understand. For millions of students who struggle with learning disabilities or visual impairment, textbooks present barriers to educational success and independence.
The national nonprofit Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic brings the printed page to life for students. RFB&D offers the largest collection of recorded textbooks in the world available to everyone with a disability that makes reading difficult or impossible. RFB&D: Learning through listening.
Narrator: RFB&D has locations around the country that are staffed with volunteer readers and service coordinators. Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic is online at www.rfbd.org, or call 866-RFBD-585.
