Join the 2020 National Convention from Anywhere


Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, the national convention of the National Federation of the Blind, originally scheduled for Houston, Texas, from July 14-19, is going virtual. The organized blind movement will connect blind Americans for the largest gathering of the blind in history!

The 2020 national convention will include most of the elements conventioneers expect, with some new twists.

We look forward to spreading the 2020 view on blindness to the entire nation and beyond.”
