Operated by the Association of Blind Citizens, the fund provides
financial resources to cover 50% of the retail price of adaptive devices
or software. Products covered by this program retail for a minimum of
$200 and a maximum of $6,000. Persons eligible to apply for assistance

Applications must be submitted by June 30th and December 31st for each

calendar year. All applications must be submitted via e-mail. The ATF is
limited to U.S. residents who are legally blind.
