Mission and Program Overview

Mission

METAS is an organization that aims to spread training on blindness skills in Mexico though a lens of structured discovery and cultural sensitivity. We provide the expertise to teachers and professionals working with blind adults and children so that local professionals can continue to foster a positive atmosphere. We use research based practices in working with the blind and professionals in the field. METAS is a non profit organization working in Mexico to build a community of inclusion around blind and low vision students. Currently 60% of blind and low vision students in Mexico do not have access to any type of education. We hope to close that gap by working with educators and giving them the tools necessary to provide high quality instruction. With your help we can reach our goals of education for the blind in Mexico.

ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0This filling is late due to unforeseen circumstances related to COVID. Members of the organization fell ill with COVID and had family members unfortunately pass with COVID. The time delay in filing was a combination of the illness and the time it takes to file. All of our members are visually impaired and filing a 990 takes additional time due to the process of using a screen reader with inaccessible web content. Thus, once we were able to file, it took time to acquire the documentation and prepare the file. We have a history of filling our tax returns on time and will continue to file them on time in the future.
