IMAGINEERING OUR FUTURE

  _____  

President's Letter

  <https://nfb.org/sites/nfb.org/files/iof/iof-mar-aph.jpg> 

I am hopeful and confident that we will continue to change the world to
ensure that blind people are valued and respected members of society. It
takes all of us to change what it means to be blind.

Working Toward Understanding and Inclusion

  <https://nfb.org/sites/nfb.org/files/iof/iof-supporters-celebration.jpg> 

Sometimes it hurts when blind people are excluded or treated differently
because others are uncomfortable or unaware. It is hard to speak up.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines blind people or their future. Every day we raise
the expectations of and for blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles between blind people and our dreams. We can live the lives we
want; blindness is not what holds us back. Please join us in our work by
becoming a member, attending an event, sharing this newsletter, or
supporting our programs.
