   4.National Federation of the Blind Belief Message: Jamie Sibson, ALC
member

    The National Federation of the Blind advances the lives of its
members and all blind people in the United States. We know that blindness is
not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise
the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. Our collective power, determination,
and diversity achieve the aspirations of all blind people.
