> We at BLIND, Incorporated are seeking dynamic, enthusiastic individuals to work as counselors in our PREP and Buddy Program. Our PREP Program serves students 14 to 21. In the Buddy Program, students range from 9 to 13 years of age.  Applicants must be able to serve as role models as well as understand and share our positive philosophy regarding blindness. These individuals must be skilled in the non-visual alternative techniques of blindness that we teach at our training center. While being a graduate of an National Federation of the Blind (NFB) training center is not a requirement, one should have the same level of skill, self-confidence, and independence that we expect from our graduates.
