Hello,

I hope you and your families are staying safe and healthy during this
difficult time!

I am just writing in order to let you know about plans for the NFB BELL
Academy for this summer. It has, as you may imagine, gone virtual this year.
Registration is still open for two sessions later this summer. This program
is for children ages 4-12. All materials will be sent to families, there
will be video lessons for you and your child to work on together, and daily
check ins with mentors, a social time, etc. to make sure any questions you
have are answered. The program is free!  For more information and to
register, please visit

Also, the national convention of the National Federation of the Blind is
virtual this summer. There will be events specifically for parents
throughout the convention, beginning Tuesday, July 14, and ending July 18.
There will be IEP sessions, opportunities for mentoring, and other meetings
and workshops of interest-all from the comfort of your own home! For more
information, or to register for the parent part of convention, visit

http://www.nopbc.org/2020-nopbc-conference-nfb-convention

You will also want to register for the NFB convention-which is free. There
is a link to register for the NFB convention included in the information on
the NOPBC website.



Please let me know if you have questions. We definitely want to continue to
support you, your child, and your child's learning, during this
unpresidented time!

Melissa
