The
Rocky Mountain Unit of RFB&D produces the textbooks that students
and professionals with print impairments need for the academic
and career success that lead to lifelong self-sufficiency
and self-fulfillment. We also provide an educational outreach
program to schools to help them use and understand the program
and our services.
Our
program is accomplished through the time and talents donated
by our specially-trained volunteers. These dedicated volunteers
come from all walks of life and areas of expertise to produce
recorded textbooks from algebra to zoology. Learn more about
volunteering
at the Rocky Mountain Unit.
