[NFBofSC] September Presidential Release

Sat Sep 3 15:42:46 UTC 2022

Good morning Miss Suzanne,

I appreciate the information. How was the event received by your members?
Also, was there discussion afterwards or was it primarily a means to access
the release LIVE?

Sincerely,

Kristopher I. Crawley

Good Morning SC,

The Ohio Affiliate had our first group that participated listening to the
Presidential Release as a group this past week. We use the invite feature in
Zoom to assist members who do not have the ability to call into the
platform. However, others got in just fine. 

We had around 22 members attend; witch was great, because they would not
have been able to listen otherwise.

Ohio had the members come in muted so that noise would not interrupt the
program.

I hope this helps.

Suzanne

Hi Kris, 

They just started this month and it is for the whole affiliate. We could
definitely try it an see how the turn out is! They also have a condensed
version of the Presidential Release that Chapter Presidents can play at
meetings. 

The National Federation of the Blind of South Carolina now has our own
podcast. Using your favorite podcast platform, just search for National

Hey Steve,

How long have they been doing this and how has it been received? I know that
national recommends that we play portions of the release at chapter
meetings. Does Ohio do it for their affiliate as a whole, or on the chapter
level?

What do you think about SC doing this in the future?

Sincerely,

Kristopher I. Crawley

Hey federation family,

If you missed it, you can click on the link below to view the September
presidential release that aired yesterday.

Release

I was thinking (and that can be good or bad depending on your perspective
lol) that it could prove beneficial to make this a monthly gathering where
we watch and discuss the presidential release. I think this could be a good
way for us to not only become educated, but reconnect with national and the
movement as a whole.

Just a thought.

Sincerely,

Kristopher I. Crawley
