The link to the Spanish application is on the English application page, and

This is the link to the English permission and release forms:
https://nfb.org/bell-permission-and-release-forms. 
The link to the Spanish permission and release forms is on the English
permission and release forms page, and can be accessed directly at:

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.
