[nfbmi-talk] Grant for starting an NFB training Center

[Mauricio Almeida]

indeed i do agree with you, for one reason:
I have always been an activist focused on acting. if you want to go ahead and make this training center, then we will work and make it happen.
It will take effort, and a lot of people with expertise in a lot of things, but we can do it, besides, i doubt that the national office would mind having a center. our state definitely needs some decent people leading things for the blind.
I will speak to lawyers and speak hypothetically on what the first steps would be for this to happen.

sincerely,

Mauricio

So, I have some idea about them and what you include in the writing of one.  My dream is to have an NFB training center here in Michigan.  I believe when we would get the funding, we would have enough clients for years.
