I am posting this information today to inform the citizens of Northwest Florida of a service that is available to them if needed. For visually impaired residents in our area, it can often times be difficult to have materials translated into Braille. The following non-profit organization is wonderful and should be able to help you put materials in the necessary format: Braille, large print, or recorded on audio tape.
