Greetings,



The next quarterly board meeting for the National Federation of the
Blind of Arizona is this Saturday, February, 10, 2024. Due to
unexpected circumstances, this meeting will be a virtual only meeting.
The Zoom information is below.



Zoom and meeting protocols:

Please make sure you are muted if you are not talking. If you want to
talk, please raise your hand, or call out your name – please wait to
be recognized before you start talking. Too much background noise will
result in everyone being muted.



Please remember this is a board meeting, and board members will be
called upon first for their input and discuss the issue, after board
discussion other members in attendance will be given an opportunity to
give their input.



Even in disagreement we need to be respectful and not interrupt others.

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.



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. You can live the life
you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
