FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Missouri Council of the Blind to Hold Blind Pension Settlement Workshops 
Throughout the State

July 27, 2018

During the months of August and September, the Missouri Council of the Blind and 
the St. Louis University School of Law will sponsor a series of workshops for 
recipients of Blind Pension and Supplemental Aid to the Blind who may be owed 
reimbursement by the State. Close relatives may also wish to attend. Attorneys 
and representatives from the Missouri Council of the Blind will all be present 
at these workshops to provide information and assist individuals in filling out 
any necessary paperwork for a claim.

"the claims process has proven very complex in certain situations and difficult 
for many to understand," says Christopher Gray, Executive Director, Missouri 
Council of the Blind. "in these workshops, we will provide all the necessary 
details and assist blind individuals with all the required paperwork."

These seminars are provided at no charge.

We strongly encourage any blind person or next of kin of a deceased blind person 
to attend one of these helpful workshops.
