First and foremost, I hope everyone is staying home and safe during these crazy times. Scott and I have both been forwarding messages from national about happenings in the federation during these times. Thursday night saw for the first time our presidential release done via zoom allowing over 800 of our federation family the chance to attend. I know several of us from the chapter were on the call. <div>The suspension of in-person meetings and gatherings has been extended through the end of April. Therefore, we will not have a traditional chapter meeting in April. Conversations are ongoing amongst chapter leadership around the state to discuss sharing the new zoom account that our affiliate now has. I will send out more info in the next couple of days as soon as I have it about the possibility of a chapter meeting via zoom for April. If anyone has questions or comments, please use my email address or phone number listed below and reach out to me. Let's continue building the National Federation of the Blind of Iowa! </div><div><br></div><div>Respectfully,</div><div><br><br><div dir="ltr"><br><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Mike Harvey, President<br>National Federation of the Blind of Iowa<br>Des Moines Chapter<br><a href="tel:615-554-0695" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="telephone" x-apple-data-detectors-result="4/0" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);">615-554-0695</a><br>Email: <a href="mailto:mharvey@nfbi.org">mharvey@nfbi.org</a> <br><i>Website: <a href="http://www.nfbi.org/">www.nfbi.org</a> <br>Facebook: </i><a href="https://www.facebook.com/National-Federation-Of-the-Blind-Of-Iowa-372681823082570/posts">https://www.facebook.com/National-Federation-Of-the-Blind-Of-Iowa-372681823082570/posts</a> <i><br>Twitter: </i><a href="https://twitter.com/nfb_iowa">https://twitter.com/nfb_iowa</a> <i><br>Des Moines Chapter </i><span lang="EN">Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/nationalfederationoftheblindofiowadsm" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: none;">https://www.facebook.com/nationalfederationoftheblindofiowadsm</span></a></span><i><br>Live the life you want.<br></i><br>The National Federation of the Blind of Iowa is a community of members and friends who believe in the hopes and dreams of the nation’s blind.
