<p class="MsoNormal">Hi everyone! Please see below for links to two very important and time-sensitive announcements. The first is about the upcoming registration deadline for the national convention of the National Federation of the Blind. Please remember that
said deadline is June 15, so you’ll want to confirm your registration before that time in order to attend from anywhere! Don’t miss out on all the beneficial content as well as chances to win door prizes and participate in a variety of concurrent and breakout
sessions. And, you can’t beat the price. It is <b><span style="font-size:14.0pt">FREE OF CHARGE!</span></b> Did I mention that it is free?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Secondly, please read below for important details about related meetings and events being hosted by the National Organization of Parents of Blind Children (NOPBC). The small registration fee to participate in these is more than worth the
cost! Please spread the word to educators and families. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">NOPBC is excited to offer our annual conference virtually this year! Full Registration is $10 and offers the following benefits for parents and families. Includes:
