About APH:

Since 1858, The American Printing House for the Blind has operated in Louisville, Kentucky as the world’s largest nonprofit organization creating accessible learning experiences through educational, workplace, and independent living products and services for people who are blind and low vision.

Then and today, APH is building an inclusive world with opportunity for everyone. Learn more about how APH is breaking down barriers to access: www.aph.org

APH is recruiting a crew of Louisville-local access warriors to help spread the message that "the future belongs to everyone." The Community Impact Crew will represent APH at various community events and provide support to ensure access at these and other APH-affiliated activities under the direction of the Community Relations Advisor.
