Donald Overton of Blinded Veterans Association | accessiBe's Spotlight Sessions

Welcome to our Spotlight Sessions, a series dedicated to conversations with change-makers and people that have made an impact on the community of people with disabilities.
In this episode, we had the opportunity to speak with Donald Overton, National Executive Director of Blinded Veterans Association, a nonprofit organization that continually strives to better the lives of all who served in the Armed Forces living with sight loss through: expert advocacy, engaged membership, clear communication and peer inspired self-reliance.
Donald shared thoughts on the following topics:
1. BVA’s history and becoming the only congressionally chartered Veterans Service Organization.
2. How BVA advocates for the vision loss community.
3. The importance of digital accessibility and inclusion to create equal opportunities.
