> hello Federation family, we will be having our legislative seminar March 15-17. We will be staying at the Doubletree hotel in Salem. The room rates are $110 per night plus tax. This includes breakfast for those staying in the hotel We will be going to the capital on Monday with facts sheets and sharing our personal stories. Also, if you'd like assistance going to national convention you'll need to send me an email by March 14. You'll need to say what you've been doing for your chapter what you've been doing for the state how much money you need what you plan to get out of going to convention. Also, if you’re a first-time person you can apply for a Kenneth Jernigan scholarship at nfb.org the deadline is April 15. I recommend for first time conventionalist you apply for both an email to the state and the Kenneth Jernigan scholarship.Yeah Stephanie McGary President of National Federation of the Blind of Oregon

Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
