[NAGDU] Guide dog matters

Mon Jan 18 21:59:36 UTC 2021

Hello Melissa and all,

For those who were able to attend yesterday’s Guide Dog Matters session, it was great having you on the call. As I mentioned at the end of the session, if you have ideas for future topics, please feel free to send me an email. The recording for yesterday’s session will be sent out by the end of the week. If will also be shared on the NAGDU FB page. I’m looking forward to future Guide Dog Matters, and hope to see some of you at our upcoming Yappie hour; which will take place on Saturday, January 23, 2021 at 3 PM EST. Warm regards.

>> Hello all. We certainly appreciate the positive response to the NAGDU Guide Dog Matters Zoom calls. Just to be clear, this could not have happened without the input from our own members. In fact, if memory serves, I believe that the idea for Guide Dog Matters came up during one of the NAGDU Yappy hours. So, let's hear it for the participants. In any case, if you have a topic you would like to see discussed and if you have contacts with someone who is knowledgeable in a topic, please reach out to the NAGDU board, myself, or Stacie. We will eventually have an email address to send you suggestions to so you don't have to wonder who to write, but for now, any of those will work. NAGDU's board address is board at nagdu.org, mine is rgallegos at nagdu.org, and Stacie's is shardy at nfbtx.org.
