Child reading braille

With the passage of HF 2612 during the 2024 legislative session, updates to the delivery of Braille transcription and AIM/AEM scanning services and products will be impacted going forward. This article includes department and pricing updates.

  • Districts will be charged directly for all products created and any services ordered. An invoice will be sent after the order is completed.

  • If UPS/USPS is required for shipping, districts will cover that expense and will be invoiced accordingly.

  • Districts should order directly from the Heartland AEA website: Braille and AIM/AEM Scanning. Heartland AEA employees should not order “on behalf of” a district or teacher.
