Hello all,

Do you know a college student graduating next year who is legally (or
totally) blind? The National Research and Training Center on Blindness
and Low Vision (NRTC) is pairing students nationwide with mentors who
are also legally blind and working in a similar field of interest.
Opportunities include face-to-face mentoring, job shadowing, and
networking.  We offer career preparation resources and student
incentives to participate.  Students must be under age 35 and should
sign up by December 2013.  Professionals who are blind and interested in
serving as mentors are also encouraged to apply. For more info, visit
http://tiny.cc/mentoring-project. For questions, contact Jamie O’Mally
at nrtc2 at colled.msstate.edu, or call 662-325-2001 or toll free
at1-800-675-7782.  Please share this information with anyone you think
may be interested!

Thank you,
