Greetings,

 

Below is the agenda and Zoom link for tomorrow's quarterly board meeting..

 

National Federation of the Blind of Arizona

November 2024 Quarterly Board Meeting Agenda

 

 

Zoom and meeting protocols:

Please make sure you are muted if you are not speaking. If you would like to
be recognized and speak, 

please raise your hand, or call out your name - please wait to be recognized
before you start talking. Too much background noise will result in everyone
being muted.

Please be respectful of others, and wait until they are done speaking before
speaking.

 

Please remember this is a board meeting, and priority is given to board
members for discussion. Guests will be given an opportunity to give input
after discussion by the board.

Only board members vote when a motion is called for a vote.

 

Even in disagreement we need to be respectful and not interrupt others.

Philosophy 

One minute Message v. Belief Statement

 

One Minute Message:

The National Federation of the Blind 

knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your
future. 

Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, 

because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our
dreams. 

You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

 

The National Federation of the Blind advances the lives of its members and
all blind people in the United States. We know that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. Our collective power, determination,
and diversity achieve the aspirations of all blind people.
