The Blind Muse Foundation, a leading organization dedicated to increasing awareness of the blind and visually impaired community, is thrilled to announce the launch of its new service aimed at making digital content more accessible to all audiences.

The Blind Muse Foundation, which focuses on communication, education, and connections, has successfully completed the Authoring Accessible Documents program through AED COP, Accessible Electronic Document Community of Practice under the Department of Homeland Security. This achievement enables the Foundation to offer training and services to individuals and small businesses on creating accessible digital documents, including Microsoft Word, Excel, PDFs, and PowerPoint presentations.

In addition to document accessibility, the Foundation offers an Audio Description program designed to transform existing content into formats accessible to blind or visually impaired individuals. The Foundation’s expertise extends to creating accessible online content, including the incorporation of alternative text for images. This service is particularly beneficial for the travel and hospitality industries, where visual content plays a crucial role in user engagement.

“Making digital content accessible is not just a compliance requirement; it’s about inclusion and ensuring everyone has equal access to information.” Our services are designed to bridge the gap between the sighted and visually impaired communities, enhancing understanding and communication.

The Foundation is also nearing the completion of the Trusted Tester Program from the Department of Homeland Security. Once certified, the organization will be authorized to conduct comprehensive accessibility audits on websites in accordance with Section 508 guidelines.

As part of our growing commitment to hands-on education and public health, The Blind Muse Foundation is now a licensed American Red Cross training provider, offering CPR, First Aid, and AED certification in an accessible setting for all learners. We believe life-saving skills should be within reach for everyone, and we welcome individuals, schools, and businesses to participate in this inclusive training opportunity.

In the spirit of accessibility through the arts, we are also proud to support The Vision Beyond Sight Players, our community-based acting group featuring senior citizens and performers of all abilities. Through original plays and public performances—like Do the Proper Thing: Please Ask, Do Not Assume, inspired by the courtesy rules of blindness—we bring disability awareness to life and foster empathy through storytelling.

Whether you’re seeking digital accessibility services, inclusive CPR training, or arts-based education programs that challenge assumptions and create connection, The Blind Muse Foundation is your partner in building a more inclusive world.
