<p class="MsoNormal">The National Association of Guide Dog Users
would like to invite you to our next Guide Dog Matters
seminar. This is a one-hour presentation on a specific topic
related to guide dog users. The seminar typically takes place
on the third Sunday of every month unless otherwise noted. For
those who are not able to attend, the presentation will be
recorded and shared on the list as well as the NAGDU Facebook
page.<br>
<br>
This month's topic is, "Reading NAGDU's proposed resolutions
for this year's national convention."<br>
NAGDU would like to take this time to read the draft of the
proposed resolutions that have been submitted to the NFB's
resolutions committee. This will be the opportunity for people
to find out the nature of the resolutions and ask questions
about them. Please keep in mind that the final wording of the
resolutions will most likely change based on what the
resolutions committee says. Also, this is no guarantee that
the committee will adopt the resolutions, nor that the
convention will vote to approve them.<br>
It is our hope that members, guide dog users and non-guide dog
users, will ask questions about these resolutions so they can
make the best choice when it comes time to voting for them
during convention this year. NAGDU is planning on having a
town hall meeting about these resolutions in June and in July
before the general sessions where people can ask further
questions about them.<br>
Right now, there are three proposed resolutions:<br>
1. Resolution concerning accessible information from guide dog
schools.<br>
2. Resolution concerning due process involving repossession
and removing guide dogs from handler's possession.<br>
3. Resolution calling on the International Guide Dog
Federation to adopt standards concerning the rights of guide
dog handlers.<br>
<br>
<br>
Date: Sunday, May 16, 2021.<br>
Time: 3 PM Eastern. (This calculates as 2 PM Central, 1 PM
Mountain, 12 noon Pacific, and 11 AM Alaska.)<br>
Where: Zoom.<br>
