Robert, this sounds like it will be an excellent meeting. I always enjoy hearing from Charlie, because she brings so much enthusiasm to what she does! Thank you for inviting her to be our guest.

Hi You All
RE: Our September Meeting is two Monday’s away
Non-Members are WELCOME
 
TOPIC: Join us for a visit with Charli Saltzman. Her new position is being the lead provider of services NCBVI has for older blind Nebraskans. Note, she is not a new staffer of the Commission, having served in several prior work capacities: a volunteer, a paid part-time contractor for various Commission programs and filling in for staff on medical leave, and more. Most recently she held a fulltime position in NCBVI’s Training Center, as a teacher of Braille. She herself is blind from birth and is a dog guide user. Let us learn about her teaching interests and specialties, and her philosophy of instructing blindness skills. We can share what we know and feel about the needs and learning characteristics of the older blind.  I know that some of us have known Charli for years, but hey… think of what a great time we can jointly have by having a straightforward and respectful sharing of who we are and what we know and believe.
