Blind People Are Running This Factory

Marginalizing people with disabilities has led to a lack of career opportunities for people who are blind. Currently, the unemployment rate for this population is 70%.

The Dallas Lighthouse for the Blind was founded to create jobs and to promote quality of life and independence for people who are blind and visually impaired in North Texas. As an outcome of the vocational rehabilitation services program begun in 1920, the objective was to remove obstacles for people with disabilities so they can be employed and live independently.
