Greetings friends and colleagues,=20

I am again reaching out to you with exciting opportunities! We are all too =
aware of the devastating extent to which inaccessibility to digital content=
can deprive people with disabilities, including those who are blind or hav=
e low vision, of equal participation in the world and marketplace. Thus a g=
rowing industry has risen to even the playing field for everyone, including=
those with disabilities. In fact, study after study show that creating acc=
essible content platforms leads to universal access and a greater customer =
base. Blind Industries and Services of Maryland, an internationally recogni=
zed leader and innovator in the field of blindness, has embarked upon an ag=
gressive initiative to be part of creating and promoting a universally acce=
ssible professional environment for its bore than 600 associates, the major=
ity of whom are blind, as well as spreading the expertise widely in the mar=
ketplace. We are in hot pursuit of digital accessibility experts at all lev=
els, from program director, to testers and software designers, to accessibi=
lity specialists with a passion to create a culture of accessibility for al=
l. Please email me at: <EMAIL REMOVED> with your resume and willingness to =
relocate to Charm City, sorry, only onsite availability will be considered.=
I have attached a job description for the Director of Accessibility and lo=
ok forward to arranging an initial interview for qualified candidates.=20

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you soon!=20
