advocacy, public awareness, and mentoring, the National Federation of the Blind
of Nebraska provides support to members and advocates for our rights to live
the lives we want. As a member or guest at our event, you represent not only
yourself but also our organization. We want you to enjoy your time with us,
make new friends, and renew old acquaintances. Although we encourage members to
socialize and have fun, the convention also provides an important opportunity
to come together to continue the work of our organization, to learn about the
important initiatives that we are involved with on a local and national level,
and to plan our work for the future.</span></p>
