[nfb-talk] Transportation Plans for Hard to Access Chapters

[Stacie Hardy - NFBHOU]

Hello Joe,

In TX, we have an At Large Chapter; which is for members who live in 
rural areas or too  far from a chapter they can easily access. This 
chapter meets via conference call and for some of the members who live 
close, they get together for some things. At our state convention, this 
chapter holds a face-to-face meeting; usually over breakfast. Not sure 
how far your prospective members live from one another, but this might 
be a possible solution. Good luck! Keep us posted on your progress.
