Below are instructions for joining today's town hall for Blind and Low Vision
Services and other vocational rehabilitation programs.  Hope to see you

Here are a few ideas you may want to talk about:

. Importance of VR and IL programs in the lives of blind Montanans.

. Support for the Business Enterprise Program.

. Restoring permanent funding for NFB Newsline.

. Need for more assistive technology support for blind Montanans.

. Appreciation for the creation of the Bureau of Blind and Low Vision
Services.

. Expansion of Independent Living for the Older Blind program.
