[Steve Cook]

Below is an event we should all attend!

 

Greetings All,

On August 28, 2023, at 8 PM ET, the Black Elected Leaders, one of the
workgroups of the National Organization of Blind Black Leaders, a proud
division of the National Federation of the Blind will have a program on
Federation philosophy. What is the philosophy of the National Federation of
the Blind? How is it applied in a blind person's daily life? What are some
misconceptions and myths about our philosophy? 

Our guest speaker will be Roland Allen, who has taught cane travel
instruction at the Louisiana Center for the Blind for the past 27 years and
served as a residential manager and cane travel instructor  for the summer
program for teens. He has held many leadership roles in the NFB, including
current 2d Vice President of his local chapter and in the past  the Board of
Directors of the Sports and Recreation Division. He serves as a National
Orientation and Mobility Certificate trainer helping mentor those who are
preparing to become cane travel instructors. Roland is married to Pam Allen,
Executive Director of LCB and 1st Vice President and Chairperson of the
National Federation of the Blind.
