UAA Disability Support Services

The Alaska Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ACBVI) is pleased to formally announce and welcome Nate Kile as Executive Director. Many of you already know Nate through his ten-year tenure with ACBVI. For six of those years, Nate served in a senior management position as Program Director; prior to that, he provided direct services via his roles as Assistive Technology Specialist, Employment Specialist, and Youth [Services] Coordinator. He has also represented ACBVI publicly through media appearances, community presentations, and statewide collaboration efforts. Always with a smile and a kind word, Nate has been a leader and a driving force in the running of our organization and, as board and staff, we place trust in his continued stewardship.

ACBVI would also like to take a moment to thank CB Brady, outgoing Executive Director, for his two decades of service in his roles as ED; board member; president of the board; supporter; donor; and advocate. We wish him all the best as he pursues new adventures in life.

Confronting Ableism on the Way to Justice To build a society that advances the human rights of all people requires the social justice movement to be intentional in including intersecting identities and diverse equity struggles.
