The
Braille ChallengeTM is a two-stage academic competition designed to motivate
school-age braille readers to excel in this vital medium. . Everyone can
compete in the preliminary round. Then, the top 60 eligible students are
invited to Los Angeles, where they’ll match braille skills against
their peers at the June finals!
