[NFBMD] Blind and low-vision people needed for photo shoot

[Blake, Lou Ann]

The National Disability Rights Network (NDRN), in collaboration with the National Federation of the Blind and Disability Rights Maryland, are doing a photo shoot of people with disabilities voting and working as poll workers!

On September 13, we will set up a "polling place" at National Federation of the Blind's Jernigan Institute in Baltimore and take photos and video of voters waiting in line, checking in with a pollbook, marking and casting their ballots, etc. that will be used as stock footage for reports, websites, and social media by NDRN and our partners.

We are looking for volunteers who:
*             Have all types of disabilities
*             Are non-disabled or appear non-disabled
*             Are from diverse backgrounds (race/ethnicity, gender identity, age, etc.)

Volunteers will:
*             Participate from 10:30am until midafternoon
*             Get a free lunch during the photoshoot
*             Receive a $50 stipend if they are volunteering in their personal time
