IMAGINEERING OUR FUTURE

  _____  

	




President's Letter




When I first got to know the National Federation of the Blind, I quickly
learned the power of bringing people together and the tremendous need for
advocates with real lived experience as blind people.

President Riccobono.



Parent Advocates Looking Forward to IEP Academy




"My parents were immigrants--navigating the IEP process was difficult and I
did not always get the best services. Using a magnifier year after year when
it proved inefficient exemplifies the problem.."

program to train advocates for blind students.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines blind people or their future. Every day we raise
the expectations of and for blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles between blind people and our dreams. We can live the lives we
want; blindness is not what holds us back. Please join us in our work by
becoming a member, attending an event, sharing this newsletter, or
supporting our programs.
