The Kansas Braille Transcription Institute, Inc. is a non-profit corporation dedicated to serving the visually impaired through the operation of an innovative Braille transcription center. Our mission is threefold:

• To utilize Library of Congress-certified Braille transcribers and state-of-the-art technologies in the production of Braille documents, and to provide quality repair and servicing of manual BrailleWriter writing devices for the blind.
  

• To provide economically efficient methods for saving learning institutions, state agencies, and the general public from the exorbitant costs of Braille production and avoidable legal action resulting from failures to adequately serve the visually impaired.
  

• To operate the corporation in a way that actively recognizes the central role that nonprofit organizations play in the structure of a society.
  

Underlying the mission of KBTI is the determination to seek new and creative ways of addressing the above while holding a deep respect for individuals, inside and outside of the corporation .

At present, the demand for certified Braille transcribers and BrailleWriter repair technicians far outweighs the supply. We seek to be on the cutting edge of the field, to provide the highest quality of service at an affordable cost. We encourage you to read more about our mission, the services we provide, and the advantages of using KBTI for your Braille transcription and BrailleWriter repair needs.
