What We Do

We are embracing a significant shift in our social mission to more clearly focus on systemic barriers to education equity through comprehensive engagement within individual communities.

We are transforming our work to build significant connection between learning differences and racial justice for lasting change in a focused, localized way. We have been developing deep connections and relationships in five initial communities (Detroit, Atlanta, Memphis, Albuquerque and Las Vegas) that have been marginalized by systemic racism and poverty so that all students regardless of ability or zip code can have the opportunity to learn in ways that work for them.

The collection has nearly a million titles and empowers hundreds of thousands of people who cannot read traditional books due to disabilities like blindness, low vision, and dyslexia. Readers can listen to books, see and hear words as they are highlighted, read in braille or large font, and customize their reading experience in ways that work for them.

Training Resources

Benetech cares deeply about educational equity. One way to influence that is to provide teachers with high quality training that is practical and action oriented. This provides support to students through teachers who are striving to provide appropriate and effective accommodations to their students to help them reach their goals. Another way to influence this is to provide professional development to librarians and other community organizations that are an avenue to information to the public.
