[Nfbmd] Mentoring program for blind and low vision youth and young adults ages 14-24

[Amy Phelps]

Blind Industries and Services if pleased to announce our newest program for blind and low vision youth and young adults, ages 14 to 24, BISM Mentoring Program! I know the name sounds dull but the program will be far from dull. The name is temporary because the first cohort of mentoring pairs will come up with a fun and creative name for the program at our kick-off event in January.

Please feel free to share this information with teachers, parents, blind youth and young adults, and potential mentors. This is a great opportunity to give back and have lots of fun while learning and teaching.

I have attached a copy of the flyer for the program. Join in the fun and call or email today for more information.

Warm regards,

Amy C. Phelps, CRC, NOMC
