CRIS Radio is a nonprofit broadcast media organization that provides 24/7 radio reading services and a range of accessible audio programs for people who are blind or print-challenged. Operating from Windsor, Connecticut, the company relies on a small staff complemented by a large pool of volunteers who contribute voice talent to deliver articles from more than 70 newspapers and magazines, including online and on-demand children’s materials. Its services extend beyond traditional radio reading to include targeted programs such as CRISKids, which supports literacy and reading ability for students, and CRISKids for Schools, which offers customized audio access to classroom materials for students with disabilities. The organization also runs initiatives like CRISAccess, which uses QR codes to provide audio signage access in museums, and Positive Futures, a podcast aimed at people with disabilities exploring workforce opportunities, reflecting a broad approach to accessibility in information consumption.

CRIS operates within the broadcast media production and distribution sector, serving individuals who cannot access printed material through conventional means. By combining voice talent from volunteers with specialized programming, CRIS aims to keep its audience informed about local, national, and international news, as well as community events and educational content. The organization has a multi-decade history of serving its target community and engages in partnerships and programs that expand its reach and impact, including collaborations with libraries and educational organizations. Its location in Windsor places it within the Connecticut region, and it maintains an active presence through a dedicated website that hosts information about its programs and services.
