 Organizations are not necessary for ADA lawsuits, but they are helpful for
injunctive relief (if the organization has organizational or associational
standing) when an individual plaintiff does not have standing for injunctive
relief.

If your other contacts don't pan out, you might want to contact Equip for
Equality, the Illinois protection and advocacy agency.  They do some good
legal work.

You should contact the NFB (sponsor of this list). But a suit requires
individual plaintifs as well as organizations so one of the blind persons in
question would have to be willing to be a party to the suit.
