(Albany, NY) – The Capital District Transportation Authority (CDTA) honored with the 2013 Northeastern Association of the Blind (NABA) Partnership award in recognition of its longstanding partnership in helping people achieve and sustain independence.
“We’re proud to receive this recognition from the Northeaster Association of the Blind, in support of their mission to provide services that help blind and visually impaired people to achieve independence,” said CDTA Chairman David Stackrow. “NABA has always been there for us to provide our customers with assistance and prepare Braille materials that help them better navigate our services.”
CDTA has worked with NABA for years helping to transport customers to places of work, medical appointments and shopping locations.
NABA’s mission is to provide services and support to help blind and visually impaired people achieve independence and growth.
Since 1908, NABA has helped people adapt to vision loss, achieve personal goals and remain independent members of our community. Today, NABA provides services to individuals of all ages throughout 14 counties in and around the Capital Region.
