  We discussed other media outlets for posting about the NFB blind Muslims division, 

We discussed meeting  with the president mark riccobono to go over the talking points.

other media postings, statements of what we are, we want to drafting an announcement for the NFB to use, about our new division .  

we discussed about providing a list of Islamic terms, list of Islamic resources, a posting of  a Islamic calendar the NFB can use for scheduling their events.

  it was proposed that we use ISNA a resource. We will verify that the resources correct before posting.

We want to reach out to the communities in faith division to let them know about our new group and they should use us as a resource. Tom Anderson is the president.
