Hawaii Braille Literacy Education Act promotes braille literacy for blind students.
The Hawaii Braille Literacy Education Act aims to enhance braille literacy for blind students by requiring the Department of Education to provide braille instruction and materials. It mandates that individualized education programs or Section 504 plans for eligible blind students include braille instruction and materials unless deemed unnecessary. The Act also establishes a braille literacy resource center to advocate for braille literacy, obtain instructional materials, and provide information on braille efficacy. It appropriates funds for the center's establishment and operation.
