“A young blind child’s early start with Braille skills, cane travel, and our positive philosophy is crucial. These roots grow and blossom into our next generation of scientists, teachers, senators, and Federation leaders.”  <https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=19074&qid=4573838> More about early childhood initiatives.

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.
