Diego chapter Meet the Blind Month Project


Meet the Blind as we live the lives we want! 


 

In recognition of Meet the Blind Month, The National Federation of the Blind
of California , San Diego chapter will post live Face Book videos of blind
individuals demonstrating blindness skills. Anyone who has ever wondered how
blind people cook, use household appliances, or just get around the
community will want to watch our live Face Book Videos. Viewers will see
that 

blindness does not hold us back, and that just like our sighted friends, we
have a wide range of interests and talents. These videos will be posted most
Saturdays at 2:00 PM. We invite all viewers to share the link to the videos
with as many other people as possible. No video will be posted during the
NFBCA state convention.  Below is the weekly schedule for our videos.
