Federation Family,

As we prepare for our 2023 national convention in Houston, I want to remind you all to be sure to cheer from the rafters for our national scholarship finalists. This year, we have two finalists from the great state of Michigan. One of our finalists, Felecia Bradford, is a breakout star from our Flint-Genesee chapter; having been a strong advocate this year at our 2023 Washington Seminar, the Flint chapter’s voting rights demonstration, the statewide Youth and Family program planning committee, our delegation at the 2023 MAER conference and as a NFB delegate for the consumer involvement committee for the BSBP.
Felecia’s dedication to the work of the Federation is a testament to the investment that the Federation is making in her educational future. Please take some time to check out an amazing interview that ABC 12 did with Felecia this week following the announcement of her as a national  scholarship finalist by clicking the link below.
Congratulations again to Felecia and the Flint-Genesee chapter for their mobilization and dedication to the work of the Federation!

Robert Parsons, Jr.
President, National Federation of the Blind of Michigan
