Leadership
The American Action Fund for Blind Children and Adults operates through countless volunteers who are overseen by a volunteer board and a full-time executive director.
All of our board members are blind and receive no financial compensation for their services. The Action Fund's executive director is also a blind individual with extensive experience in educational programming for the blind.
