<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><b>Come join us on Wednesday, April 8, 2026 at 7:00 P. M. Mountain in our Zoom room. Daphne Mitchell will be enlightening us about life. Here is her short bio.</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><b>Daphne Mitchell was introduced to the National Federation of the Blind by Marie Aamodt, her TVI in 1993, and shortly thereafter, she joined the Caddo-Bossier Chapter of the NFB of
Louisiana. Daphne attended the Summer Training and Employment Project (STEP) at the Louisiana Center for the Blind (LCB) in 1997 and 1998. After graduating from high school, Daphne enrolled in the Centers adult program.</b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><b> </b></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><b>Daphne holds a bachelors degree in music from Louisiana Tech University and a masters degree in rehabilitation counseling from Texas Tech University HSC. In addition, she has earned
several graduate certificates focused on leadership. Currently, Daphne manages vocational rehabilitation field services for the New Mexico Commission for the Blind. Daphne serves as the 1st Vice President of the Albuquerque Chapter, secretary of the Louisiana
Center for the Blind Board of Directors and is a board member of the National Association of Blind Rehabilitation Professionals. She also serves on the national Diversity and inclusion Committee and the national Scholarship Committee for the National Federation
of the Blind. Daphne credits her success to two powerful influences: the unwavering love and determination instilled in her by her mother, Tolita, and the confidence she gained through her training at the Center and the positive philosophy of the NFB. Her
story is a testament to the power of belief and the importance of a strong support system.</b></p>
