It seems that I forgot to edit my survey to better fit. I initially wrote the survey for classmates in my school who might have had blind family members, but I forgot to re-write the survey for Reddit's blind community when I was planning to post it here. My apologies if the last survey I posted was not considerate, but this version should be much better suited:

Thank you all for your time!

If you add question numbers, it would be a bit easier to discuss specific questions.
For the second question, you ask if someone has heard three specific items (which are not particularly well known), but it is a required field. There is no answer for if you haven't heard of any of the three items.
For the third question, a guide dog generally replaces a mobility cane, rather than supplement.
For the seventh question, there is a distinction between guide dog schools and rehabilitation centers. While there is a large overlap (they both teach similar skills), most guide dog schools require previous training at rehabilitation centers beforehand (I believe Leader dogs is one of the few exceptions). I work at a rehabilitation center, and I would not be able to issue a guide dog. When a client is interested in getting a guide dog, they can get the application for a guide dog school and I would have to fill in some parts to explain what training I provided (and often, schools require a travel video as well to show a client's travel skills).
