Thank you, Waymo, for Sponsoring the Braille Challenge on March 7
Put Your Braille Skills to the Test!
Join us in person at the LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired in San Francisco as we proudly host this year’s Northern California Braille Challenge where we’ll celebrate braille literacy, confidence, and community!
Each year, blind and low-vision students, families, and educators from across Northern California come together to celebrate braille literacy at the Northern California Braille Challenge. Participants put their braille skills to the test through contests in reading comprehension, speed and accuracy, spelling, proofreading, and tactile graphics. Beyond the competition, the day offers workshops, resources, and meaningful opportunities for students and families to connect, learn, and be inspired.
Who: Blind and low-vision youth in grades 1–12 and their families
When: 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM on Saturday, March 7, 2026
