I appreciate you sharing  this with those of our members who might not already receive this informative newsletter.   I am glad that we as members of the National Federation of the Blind  continue our involvement beyond  the activities  that might take place on the division level, and am excited to see how we continue to stay involved in the work of the National Federation of the Blind.
 Let’s continue as a community  of members and friends to build the Federation!

>> The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines blind people or their future. Every day we raise the expectations of and for blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. We can live the lives we want; blindness is not what holds us back. Please join us in our work by becoming a member, attending an event, sharing this newsletter, or supporting our programs.
