[Community-service] Fwd: Finding and Hiring a Driver - VisionAware

[Brooke Evans]

I did read this excellent speech/proceedings from conference.  I encourage EVERYONE to read it as it is not what most might think.  It is a great teaching of reminders, new ideas in developing stronger, more effective communication and leadership building skills.  

Thanks for the post, I gleaned much from the article.

I found a few local, county, or blindness organizations that do actually provide Reader, shopper, and/or driver services. None in Texas, though… However, if anyone is interested in trying to get an organization like this started in their area, I would be happy to forward you the examples I found.
