[NFB-Idaho] Where is full disclosure?

Tue Feb 8 17:10:20 UTC 2022

I know nothing about these particular links, but I wonder if they are aurrent. Our national leadership was made aware of some problems a year and a half ago and have been working very hard to take action to prevent problems and provide assistance to victims where problems occurred in the past. I cannot believe such information is being circulated now, unless it is to cause trouble. Our Code of Conduct addresses how inappropriate behavior can be investigated and how offenders will be investigated by professionals outside the NFB.
