[4Alabama] 2024 NFB National Convention

[Jennifer Reeves]

The National Federation of the Blind advances the lives of its members and
all blind people in the United States. Each year we come together for
important discussions, decisions, and information sharing. The convention
is open to all. Our constitution states that only members of the Federation
have the right to participate in decision-making when it comes to
organizational policy. If you are not already a member, please connect with
your state affiliate.
