If you would be interested in having free braille books for these kids or 
others either homeschooled or in regular school let me know. My group, 
Temple Beth El Braille Bindery Volunteers in Michigan has  over 2000 books 
that we can reproduce in braille. Some are print/braille in grade 1 braille 
and others are just grade 1 braille. We have many grade 2 braille books for 
ages preschool to about 14 years of age.  We also are willing to transcribe 
literary books into braille for free (upon approval of our group). If you or 
anyone else on the list that you contact would like a list of our books let 
me know and I will send  the information.

The local news came out to Saturday Club yesterday, and my daughter, Lindsay 
was on KTVE Channel 10 in LA last night at 6 and 10.  The link to the video 
and article is below.

Saturday Club is a monthly activity for local blind/visually impaired kids 
co-sponsored by the Louisiana Tech Institute on Blindness, the Louisiana 
Center for the Blind, the NFB of Louisiana, and Louisiana Parents of Blind 
Children and supported by local school district teachers. It rocks!  We hope 
to form a Saturday Club in central and/or south Louisiana in early 2015. 
It's a place for the kids to practice blindness and social skills and to 
just have fun with other blind kids, for families and teachers to get 
resources and support, and for our teachers in training to get hands-on 
experience with blind kids!
