The Valley Radio Reading Service is a nonprofit  agency  broadcasting local news papers and other printed material to our listeners who are blind or have vision loss.  In addition many of our listeners are elderly.  We also provide our Service to those who are print impaired. We provide a special radio receiver using a side band to broadcast our programming.  We service all of the Pioneer Valley, Hampden, Hampshire and  Franklin Counties.  Although most of our listeners are in the cities we have several listeners in rural areas.

VRRS, has been servicing the needs of our listeners for over thirty years.  As a nonprofit organization, we depend upon our volunteers. These sixty plus people make VRRS programming possible. We broadcast live Monday through Friday, reading the Republican and Franklin Hampshire News. We record regional publications, such as the Reminder and the Advocate, for broadcast throughout the week.
