Podcast: Notes of Progress, ACB’s Journey in Fighting for Accessible Currency Part 1

In this collaborative podcast episode between the Penny Forward Podcast and the American Council of the Blind (ACB) Advocacy Update Podcast, we explore the past and future of accessible currency. Our guest, Dan Spoone, the ACB Interim Executive Director, shares the organization’s commitment to enhancing the lives of blind and low vision individuals. We delve into the historical background of the accessible currency movement, highlighting ACB’s resolutions and a significant class action lawsuit that resulted in injunctive relief. Throughout the discussion, we stress the importance of being prepared and transparent in the upcoming changes, as well as the significance of raising public awareness and advocating for accessibility.
