So head on over to <a href="http://www.nfbcommunityservice.org/blog">www.nfbcommunityservice.org/blog</a> to read Libra Robinson’s update on the NFB of D.C. Community Service Division.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>While posting Libra’s entry, I realized that I have neglected to update the list on some recent blog entries I’ve posted. So while you’re checking out what Libra has to say, also take a look at Kyra Sweeney’s recaps of the division’s October and November membership calls.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I have also been working on updating the Web site in general. At last year’s division meeting at National Convention, Hindley Williams gave an engaging presentation on how to get involved on the service site. Now the corresponding handout, How to Get Involved in Eight Simple Steps, is available in our Resources section. The Resources section has also been restructured to highlight resources for both how and where to get involved in community service. If you know of a resource you think should be included on the site, please let us know by e-mailing <a href="mailto:president@nfbcommunityservice.org">president@nfbcommunityservice.org</a>.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Chris Parsons<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Vice President, National Federation of the Blind Community Service Division<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
