[Ncabs] Legal Rights Discussion at State Convention

[sharon_newton]

Hello!

This is a great idea.  Frankly, though many of our attendees at the "general" convention 
are older and not seeking work, there are many that are working age that I feel would be 
interested and greatly helped by this topic.  Also included in this topic should be the 
legal rights and recourses and resources if one's employer tries to terminate on the basis 
of disability or, for example, poor work performance because of the disability but 
unwilling to provide legally-mandated assistance that would solve such a problem.

It shouldn't surprise anyone that I fully, totally, completely, and surely support this 
idea!

I'd be happy to take the lead on this one if others feel it should be offered.

I have heard the suggestion to have a session on legal rights for blind students during 
the student track at the state convention.

I like this idea.

How does everyone feel about it?

We will discuss this on the conference call on Monday night, but be encouraged to comment 
on it here or on our Facebook group page.

Yours in Federationism,

Justin
