[Ag-eq] Do I fight or just find some other way

[Nella Foster]

Barb:

What school do you go to?

What types of jobs would you like to have with animals?

Does your school have a disabilities resource center?

Maybe you could check out the NFB mentor program to see if there is anyone 
who is a vet tech.  They could give you ideas on how to accomplish different 
parts of the program.  The American Foundation for the Blind also has a 
mentor program.  The website is www.AFB.org

Good luck.
