IMAGINEERING OUR FUTURE

  _____  

	




President's Letter




A focus on Braille in January is a great way to kick off the new year
because it signifies our core belief in the full capacity of blind people.
Braille literacy is an important skill that helps level the playing field
for the blind.  <https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=37177&qid=10875900>
More from President Riccobono.



NFB Events Showcase Our Belief in Blind People




One of our core values is a belief in blind people that permeates our
organization. This value is emphasized in our publications, events, and at
every membership meeting of the NFB.

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.
