The Center of the Blind has begun offering an audio version of its monthly member newsletter, available to those having difficulty reading the publication or who find it easier to listen to it.  The audio newsletter can be heard by dialing a local phone number and is updated on the same day that the publication is emailed.  Members can volunteer to be readers for the program by contacting the office.  Readers are able to record their spoken parts using their mobile devices.

“The more readers the better”, said Kevin Harkins, who is coordinating the project and providing training in instruction as needed.  Harkins says he hopes this will make it easier for more of our members to keep up with all that’s going on at the Center.
