Subject: [NABS-L] NABS Now Podcast Ep. 1: Legislation 101

Hey, everyone!
We are so excited to officially launch the NABS Now Podcast. The NABS Now
Podcast is a new initiative giving students a place to let their voice be
heard!
Our first episode is all about legislative advocacy as a student, just in
time for Washington Seminar and exciting legislative efforts relevant to
blind students,, such as AIMHigh.
 Feel free to read the episode description below.
You can Find Episode 1 here:

Episode Description: Advocacy for legislation is a driving force in enacting
powerful change and equality for all those who are blind. With Washington
Seminar quickly approaching, students Kenia Flores and Justin salisbury
share their thoughts on the importance of advocating for legislation as a
student. We know that this may seem daunting at first, but we offer some
tips for students who wish to gain more experience. Lieutenant Governor Josh
Green of Hawaii offers helpful information about the legislative process
from the viewpoint of someone in political office, as well.
We would like to thank special guests Kenia Flores, Justin Salisbury, and
Lieutenant Governor Josh Green of Hawaii.

If you are interested in becoming involved in the creation and production of
the NABS Now Podcast, feel free to reach out to me ninam0814 at gmail.com.
Thank you to the many individuals whose hard work have made the NABS Now
Podcast possible!
Best, Nina
