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!
