National Federation of the Blind 2023 National Convention
July 1 through July 6, 2023
Houston, Texas
#NFB23

The National Federation of the Blind is the transformative membership and advocacy organization of blind people. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. Each year we come together for important discussions, decisions, and information sharing.

As an attendee, take advantage of the opportunity to:
* Network with thousands of blind role models
* Connect with leaders in the field of blindness
* Attend presentations on a variety of empowering topics
* Learn about the latest in technology and innovation
* And more!
The convention is open to all. Important note: Our constitution states that only members of the Federation have the right to participate in decision-making when it comes to organizational policy. If you are not already a member, please connect with your state affiliate (https://nfb.org/about-us/state-affiliates).
