I think that you're right. What do you have in mind is to specifics? The  braille literacy committee should make a proposal to the board. Thank you

Well, here’s a shocker.  The annual Braille Readers Are Leaders contest sponsored by national apparently is no more.  The adult contest was around the last 5 (?) years.  And its demise is only one year after national stopped the BRAL program for children, that having been around for maybe 30 years.  

I think the NFB of Illinois needs to consider sponsoring some kind of BRAL contest on a statewide level.

Great to hear from you. Unfortunately, we will not be having an adult contest this year. We are hoping that NAPUB may be able to take over the contest and reinstate it next year though.



All the best,

Natalie

Hi Natalie



Is BRAL starting on Nov 1?  I haven’t heard a peep.
