[nabs-l] Daniel ROmero -- Introduction

Brian,
It’s a different way of teaching at nfb centers; they want you to experience 
independent living from day one  Many people like it and experimenting.  I 
agree with you.  Its not right for everyone; some of us want to learn the 
skills like cooking/shopping before entering an apartment.

Actually Brian, CCB and other nfb centers take 6-9 months.
Ashley

Why do they push you into an apartment from day one at CCB?  That's not the
way to teach blindness skills.  Plus CCB takes an entire year while the
Carroll Center takes only 16 weeks
