</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times">The purpose of the National
Federation of the Blind Travel & Tourism Division is to aid the
National Federation of the Blind. It is to serve as a vehicle for
collective action by the blind of the nation. This division functions as
a mechanism through which all interested blind and sighted persons can
come together to plan and execute programs that improve the quality of
life and travel for the blind. We promote vocational, cultural and social
advancement of the blind; to achieve integration of the blind into
society on the basis of equality with the sighted; to focus attention
upon accessibility and problems facing blind travelers, to educate blind
people interested in the travel and tourism industry; and to take any
other action necessary to improve the overall condition and standard of
living of the blind.<br><br>
