Blind Industries and Services if pleased to announce our newest 
program for blind and low vision youth and young adults, ages 14 
to 24, BISM Mentoring Program! I know the name sounds dull but 
the program will be far from dull..  The name is temporary 
because the first cohort of mentoring pairs will come up with a 
fun and creative name for the program at our kick-off event in 
January.

Please feel free to share this information with teachers, 
parents, blind youth and young adults, and potential mentors.  
This is a great opportunity to give back and have lots of fun 
while learning and teaching.

I have attached a copy of the flyer for the program.  Join in the 
fun and call or email today for more information.

Warm regards,

Amy C.  Phelps, CRC, NOMC
