The Tzohar organization reports this Shabbos, parshas Toldos, is its second Shabbos dedicated to accessibility to the blind, explaining we read about Yitzchak Avinu losing his eyesight so the organization is running its second Shabbaton dedicated to shul accessibility to the blind and disabled.
Chairman of the Tzohar Ethics Committee Rabbi Yuval Cherlow feels too often the disabled are forgotten and not properly looked after.
Tzohar calls on shuls to take a look around and decide just how accessible shuls are to the disabled, including those who are blind or visually disabled.
