Hello fellow Federationist,

Most of us are now back from convention. For those of you who could not
attend, I have some great news! I  am happy to let all of you know that NFBI
is one of the 2017 Jacob Bolotin award winners for  Our Freedom Link
program. Congratulations to Debbie Stein, and all of the Freedom Link
mentors since 2008, who with love, hope and determination, have helped show
blind teenagers blindness skills. Their efforts have helped the kids build
self-confidence, as they start on the road to realizing their dreams, and
living the lives they want.  Our affiliate has a plaque, and $10,000.00







Denise R. Avant, President

National Federation of the Blind of Illinois

Live the life you want.
