For Massachusetts to participate in the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) Federal Act to Promote the Education of the Blind and receive Federal Quota funds for materials, BVI students need to be reported by the LEA's certified teacher of the visually impaired (TVI) to the Accessible Instructional Materials Library in January every year. There is still time to provide this data. Submission of data accepted until March 14, 2022
Special Education Leaders, have your district TVI reach out to Carrie Brasier to ensure your eligible students are registered for American Printing House for the Blind Federal Quota materials.
