I'm not exactly sure if Louisiana does or not.

HI Sophie,
 our local chapters are open to blind people of all ages, as well 
they are open to sighted folks  of all ages.  The only 
requirement (it hardly becomes an issue) is that our chapters be 
mainly composed  of blind individuals, and that  the primaryr 
leadership offices are held by blind people.
 Does your state have an at-large chapter?

 I would like to become a member of an NFB chapter, but first of 
all, I don't know if teens are allowed to be members. And second 
of all, the two nearest chapters are at least an hour's drive 
away, so if I could become a member, it would be kinda 
inconvenient to go there, especially since I believe most 
meetings take place in the evenings.

 Best,
 Sophie

 Hi folks,

 I  was wondering   if any of you are currently active members of 
a chapter.  If so, how do you like it? how did you find that 
chapter?
 If you are not members of a chapter, why aren't you? do you   
not know where a chapter is? do you think you won't connect with 
anyone in your chapter?  have you given it a try but  didn't find 
anything  that made you want to stick around?
 interested to hear what you fine folks have to say.
 Best,
 Darian
