[Cinci-NFB] Reminder: Ohio DEI Presentation on Blindness and Additional Disabilities, 7:00 P.M. in the Ohio Zoom Room

Hi Chris, 

How I wish I could have participated in this. I got back late last night
from an awesome weekend in Jacksonville, where I was attending and speaking
at the NFB Florida convention. It was really great!

If the meeting on additional disabilities was recorded, I'd like very much
to hear it. And, if another one is scheduled, I'd be happy to participate.  

Peace,

Deborah
