Hi Kristen,
It was I who mentioned a teleconference support group my friend
and I are starting. It is not affiliated with the NFB and we do
want the appropriateness of the content to meet Orthodox
standards-it's up to anyone who would like to join to decide if
it's for them. Regarding this listserve, I might forward
Orthodox related events and resources, but I have no problem if
anyone from other affiliations discuss other things and
resources. Thank you!

Hello everyone,
Really nice to see all the discussion on the list. I'm not sure
if the suggestion about keeping discussions orthodox related to
this list or if that was a comment regarding the project of a
friend of this list. Since we all come from different
approaches to Judaism, I think it will be important to keep in
mind that everyone has a valid voice in NFB in Judaism forums.
With the knowledge that we may not all practice the same way and
will need to be respectful of differences, I'd love to see the
posts you are discussing. Thank you to everyone for your
enthusiasm!

Hi and shavuah tov, Rachel,
I think it would be a fantastic idea to include a line for Jewish
men. Iâd be glad to help in anyway I can with that. Iâm
glad to see that, thanks to Amanda, this list is actually not
completely dead. Letâs keep it that way. Maybe each of us,
you, Amanda and I, can take turns each week picking a topic,
either from the parshat ha-shavuah or some other Jewish-related
topic, and starting a discussion. When more people start talking
on the list, they can start picking topics as well. What are
your thoughts? Amanda, feel free to weigh in here as well.

Hi Ryan,
I just signed up for this list and I'm glad Amanda started this
conversation. I spoke with my friend who is starting the Insight
Beyond Eyesight for Jewish women. We agreed that as long as
participants are open to keeping the conversations to Orthodox
standards, anyone can join. Now that I see your e-mail, I'm
thinking of asking my friend to start another line for Jewish
men. We have a list of possible participants to start with
already. What do you think?
Also, as Sherley had requested, I am attaching a list of frum
books
available on bookshare and JBI/NLS-the latter I just started so
it's
not very extensive yet. If you have any more to add, please let
me
know. Thank you

Hi Amanda,
Unfortunately, this list does not get a lot of traffic. Iâve
been on the list for over two years now, and I think this is
probably the second or third email Iâve ever seen. I am always
interested in talking with other blind Jews, especially orthodox
Jews, so feel free to contact me anytime. There used to be a
wonderful resource for Blind Jews called Yismahu, but I believe
it was shut down due to lack of funds. Personally, I would love
to see some more activity on this list.
As far as websites like J date, they are pretty accessible with
the iPhone and voiceover and JAWS. I have never found a problem
with them. Looking forward to hearing from you more. Shabbat
shalom.

Hello everyone,
My name is Amanda Cape. I am 26 years old and live in Montreal,
Canada. I am Jewish and was so happy to recently discover that
the
NFB has a Judaism division. I would like to get to know
everyone and
to learn about what is discussed on this mailing list. Has
anyone
ever used the Jewish dating apps or websites with Jaws or
VoiceOver?
If so, how did they work and which ones did you use?
I am interested in getting more connected within the Jewish
community.
I look forward to hearing from everyone!
Thanks,
Amanda
