The federation of the blind of Alsace and Lorraine becomes C’Cité

The C’Cité website.

The Facebook page.

Today, I would like to talk to you about a disability that affects some of our listeners. Radio remains a medium accessible and appreciated by the blind and visually impaired, and I would not like to forget them. The Association of the Blind of Alsace and Lorraine, the AAAL, was recently renamed C Cité, a nice pun, because they are precisely sometimes well forgotten by the cities and the facilities created rather for the sighted. Well, in general.

Yes, because even if I’m perfectly able-bodied, I don’t always have my eyes in front of the holes. The Fédération des Aveugles Alsace Lorraine has been working for 113 years to implement concrete and innovative solutions for their inclusion: defense of rights, social support, access to employment, offer of adapted cultural and sporting activities, awareness-raising: this association is resolutely committed to action, in all areas. They also employ 140 visually impaired people in ESATs, to promote this integration. Whether you are faced with a visual handicap, whether you want to join, donate, or get involved as a volunteer, go to the c cité, CCITE point fr.
