National Federation of the Blind of Ohio-Cleveland Chapter Meeting

  

July 20, 2018

  

Let’s celebrate The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) which is one of the most important enactments of our time. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) became law in 1990. The ADA is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public. Without this law, persons with disabilities would not have the right to participate in all aspects of life; such as entering building that do not have ramps, no Braille on elevators or printed materials in an alternative format. 

  

What better way to celebrate the ADA, than having Michael J. Skindell, Ohio State Senator to address our Chapter meeting. He will discuss NFB Ohio’s bills, HB: 271 and HB: 309. In addition, Ohio Affiliate President, Richard Payne will also be present and Sheri Albers, Ohio Affiliate Legislative Chair will chime in on our teleconference line. If you have not read HB:271; please do to be up-to-date. 

If you are unable to join us in person, call (216) 658-4532 to be part of our meeting.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
