Video:
We have produced an informational video about the white cane and White Cane 
Awareness Day. It can be found on the Nation’s Blind YouTube channel. I 
encourage you to share this with our members, and to use it as a tool to 
educate the public on the white cane.

Meet the Blind Month Activities:
Remember to share with us the activities your affiliate, chapters and 
divisions  have planned for Meet the Blind Month. We would like to include 
details about as many events as we can on our Meet the Blind Month events 
webpage. Details can be sent to communicationsteam at nfb.org.

To chapter and division presidents:
New Member Form:
If you welcome new members this month, please complete the new member form 
online so they receive the welcome emails we have put together to introduce 
them to the Federation. If you have run out and would like to request 
additional membership cards, please email independencemarket at nfb.org to 
place an order.

Voice of the Nation’s Blind Blog:
I am pleased to report that we have launched a redesign of the Voice of the 
Nation’s Blind blog. This redesign will improve usability for visitors, so 
that our blog can become another resource for people hoping to learn about 
topics ranging from parenting to technology and more. If you have ideas for 
topics for the blog, or would like to submit a post for consideration, 
please contact communicationsteam at nfb.org.
