Sen Bennet Letter Supports Blind Employment at Envision Xpress BSC Peterson AFB

Envision Xpress Serves Airmen and women at Peterson AFB BSC Event

On August 18, U.S. Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO), in a letter commemorating the 15th Anniversary of the AbilityOne Base Supply Center program, emphasized the need for equal opportunities to jobs that the AbilityOne Program provides people who are blind: "The services that the Base Supply Center provides are invaluable tools for helping America's visually impaired and severely disabled citizens find work."

Envision Xpress employs people who are blind or disabled who support the mission of airmen and women stationed at Peterson AFB.

Envision Xpress is one of 140 AbilityOne BSCs that provide mission support for ongoing base operations and outfitting for military deployments.

These employees produce and ship products, provide services and staff the BSCs. Additionally, service-disabled veterans and military dependents have the opportunity to join the AbilityOne team, where they continue to play a valuable role in the military communities that are significant to their lives.
