[NFBJ] NJ Chapter Meetings and Shabbat

[Kristen Aronoff]

Hello all! 

This is something I’ve been sitting on for a while. I live in NJ and I want to join a chapter to get to know people. 

But every single meeting of every chapter in the state is on Saturday. I even looked into the Philadelphia chapter (I live near Philadelphia), but it is also on Saturday. I tried to join the DeafBlind division, and it’s also a Saturday meeting. (I did email about that and I wrote an impassioned plea and they moved the time to be after Shabbat). 

I’m feeling very frustrated by this. How do you folks stay connected with people in the NFB? It just feels isolating.
