The former Conklin Center was unfortunately closed last year following the Division of Blind Services cancellation of their contract. That center has been now renamed the Conklin Davis Center for the Visually Impaired in honor of founders Lion Millard Conklin and CVI founder Kathy Davis and is being managed by Ronee David, formerly CEO of CVI. Kathy Davis, former NFBF President, former Professor at Daytona State College,  and now NFBF Greater Daytona Beach Vice-President and Nancy Epps, former Ponce Inlet Mayor, President of Ponce Inlet Lions Club, and NFBF Greater Daytona Beach Treasurer have been working diligently with Ronee David to re-open this important training facility in coordination with the Florida Division of Blind Services.
During our upcoming  Valentine Day zoom conference, I urge all Conklin Center graduates and other interested Floridians to show their love and appreciation for the wonderful efforts of Ronee, Kathy, and Nancy.
I urge interested Florida participants  to join in expressing their support for these continuing activities to improve this valuable training and employment organization with obtaining help from numerous state and local businesses and from state government agencies including the Florida Division of Blind Services and Florida Department of Vocational Rehabilitation to assist with financing these continuing efforts to reopen and improve the residential Conklin-Davis  facility as soon as possible under the difficult circumstances of our uncertain prevailing community health  and economic problems.

I will also try to make our usual Free Conference call-in number available concurrently:
Free Conference phone call-in number:
605.313.5111
Code number:
305480

If you have any difficulties, please contact me at my email and phone below.
Gratefully,
Brian Norton
National Federation of the Blind of Florida
