> The Maryland Parent and student divisions invites families to our Get on BASE workshop on September 18, 2021. Participants will learn how to teach social cues and learn how to navigate different social experiences as a person who is blind, how to combat ableism, staying safe with technology, and the meaning of consent. Parents and children will split off into two separate groups and attend sessions covering the same topics. Parents will hear from successful blind adults on how  parents can help their children navigate social experiences. Children will hear how older blind student mentors handled social encounters as a blind person. Only students over the age of 14 are permitted to register and participate in the student activities.

> The Workshop will be held via Zoom.
