NFB Pledge

I pledge to participate actively in the efforts of the National Federation
of the Blind ;

to achieve equality, opportunity, and security for the blind; 

to support the policies and programs of the Federation; 

and to abide by its constitution.

NFB One-Minute Message

The National Federation of the Blind knows 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.
