2024 Braille Challenge Season

As we embark on a new Braille Challenge season together, we are deeply committed to delivering an enriching and inclusive experience for all our students.

2023 Season Recap: 57 Active Regionals/ 817 Participants

In our continued efforts to support and enhance the program, we will be hosting various meetings and trainings for Regional Coordinators throughout the season. These will be instrumental in providing our coordinators with ongoing learning, collaboration, and development opportunities.

The Braille Challenge Season will run from January 1, 2024 – March 18th, 2024. We are beyond excited to welcome new and returning Challengers back, marking the start of a promising season of learning and achievement.

Let us embrace the season with enthusiasm, curiosity, and determination. Together, we will create a positive and enriching learning experience for our students. Thank you for your dedication to the mission of Braille Challenge: promoting braille literacy. We are excited for all that is to come!
