[NFB-DB] FW: Know Before You Go #NFB26

Wed Jun 10 17:51:12 UTC 2026

Good afternoon, DeafBlind Division:

In case you did not receive it, I thought I would post the below email
regarding National Convention. If you are attending and wish to learn more
about convention exhibitors, there will be an exhibitors showcase before and
during the convention. The connection information for the pre-convention
meeting is listed below. I will send out a more in-depth notice about
National Convention very soon.

Sincerely,

Rocky Hart, President, National Federation of the Blind DeafBlind Division.
