[Blindtlk] [blindtlk] training centers

Mon Dec 9 21:29:42 UTC 2013

Either the Louisiana Center for the Blind, the Colorado Center for the Blind or Blind, Inc. They all teach search and discover with cane travel, living skills, education for college, braille, etc.  Plus these are NFB Schools. If you want to try to get into one of these schools and you are in FL, try reaching out to Dan Hicks who is the President of the NFB of FL, or Dwight Sayer who is the Vice President of Fl.

> Hello,
> I am considering centers to go to for independent living. I live in Florida and I know there is one in Daytona. But I also read about one in Louisiana, which sounds even better. I was wondering if anyone could compare both centers or recommend others. I was once told that Daytona might not accept me because of other medical conditions, but if it sounds better to me then I will fight to get in.
