[NFB-DB] Fwd: Flyer F2F Conferences 2017-18

[Jack Zimmerman]

Well now Janice and the rest of yall"....  I happen to totally Agree with those personal views! As a deaf blind person I  have had more trouble with my own family placing   obstacles in my  path  than I have any one  single other thing.  Just sayin!

I know some family are good allies and some DB people are small children, but the whole tone of this and even the website is not even inclusive of DB people themselves. All directed towards families and professionals. It makes me shudder.
