Committee


Dear All,
    I am excited to announce that  the National Federation of the Blind of 
Illinois has begun the process of  organizing the Illinois Association of 
Guide dog Users. On Tuesday, October  25, Patti Gregory-Chang, NFBI president, 
facilitated the organizational  meeting of the affiliate's Guide Dog Users' 
Committee, the first step on the  path to division status. On November 29, 
the committee will meet again. One of  the priorities of this next meeting 
will be to elect those who will lead the  committee until it ratifies a 
constitution and elects a board of Directors.  Once formally organized, the 
Illinois Association of Guide Dog Users will  become a division of the National 
Federation of the Blind of Illinois and an  affiliate division of the 
National Association of Guide Dog Users  (NAGDU).
    NAGDU currently has affiliate  divisions in California, Florida, 
Missouri, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, and  Wisconsin. Members of affiliate NAGDU 
divisions are members of the National  Association of Guide Dog Users with 
all of the rights and privileges of  membership. NAGDU also has or is in the 
process of organizing Guide Dog Users'  Committees in Georgia, Michigan, 
Mississippi, New Hampshire, Texas,  Washington, and West Virginia. If you are 
interested in supporting the work of  NAGDU in your affiliate, please get in 
touch with me. My contact information  is below my signature.
 
Fraternally yours,
Marion Gwizdala, President
National  Association of Guide Dog Users (NAGDU)
National Federation of the  Blind
