✊🏾📚 February is Black History Month.
Black history includes the leadership, advocacy & lived experiences of Black individuals who are blind or have low vision.
Recognizing the intersection of race & disability helps us better understand barriers in healthcare, employment, education & public life.
At PCB, we celebrate Black history while continuing to advocate for accessibility for all.

❄️🚶 Snow and ice don’t just slow people down — they can block access entirely.
Clearing sidewalks, curb cuts, and access ramps is essential for people who are blind or have low vision to travel safely and independently during winter.
Accessibility matters year-round.
