IMAGINEERING OUR FUTURE

  _____  

	




President's Letter




An important skill of an advocate is the ability to read a room: know when
to say thanks, recognize allies, and understand when a persuasive nudge or
even a polite yet persistent push will help achieve our goals.
<https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=34530&qid=10022504> More from
President Riccobono.



Advocating for Equal Rights in the Air




"My recent experience shows some of the issues that blind passengers
encounter. Our white canes should indicate that reading a printed boarding
pass visually might pose a barrier"

fight for dignity and equal treatment.

complete issue online

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.
