[NFBF-L] Update: Florida Statewide Chapter Monthly Meeting Now at 6:00 PM Tomorrow

[Florida Statewide Chapter Secretary]

Hello Statewide Advocates,

I would like to provide a quick update regarding our Statewide Chapter
monthly business meeting.

Instead of occurring at 8:00 PM EDT tomorrow, the board has decided to hold
our meeting at 6:00 PM EDT tomorrow in conjunction with the Florida
Association of Blind Students. This joint meeting will give members the
opportunity to enjoy an employment presentation by the NFB Employment
Coordinator, Nicky Jackson.

I apologize for the short notice regarding this change. For those who are
unable to attend, the meeting will be recorded and posted shortly afterward
for later viewing.

If you have any questions about this change, please feel free to contact me
at statewide at nfbflorida.org.

Please see the information below for more details about the presentation
and the Zoom link. Note that this Zoom link will be different from our
usual Statewide Chapter meeting link.

Best regards,
Jose
