[MDPOBC] [NFB-Maryland] Reconnect, Reimagine, Reignite: NFB of Maryland 2022 Convention Registration Now Open!

[Ronza Othman]

Hey Crissy, the board voted to hold the convention in person, and due to our contract Shewell obligations, we are unable to switch to remote or virtual. However, we are confident that the precautions that we will be taking will mitigate the risk as much as possible. People are always able to listen to a live stream of many of the activities they are unable to attend in person.

> The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
