National Federation of the Blind of Ohio (NFB-O)
74th Annual Convention
The Vision Beyond Vision
Join us as we celebrate the National Federation of the Blind of Ohio’s Annual Convention and expand our circle of participation, connecting blind Ohioans from across the state for what we expect to be the largest gathering of blind people in the history of Ohio.
Considering the ongoing impact and wide-ranging effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 State Convention will be held virtually for the first time.
We encourage you to begin preparing to attend this outstanding event during the weekend of November 6th and 7th of 2020. This Convention will be the largest assembly of blind people in the state this year. It will offer blind people vision beyond vision, an opportunity to learn about accessible technology at our Tech Fair, and living with blindness by attending many educational seminars.
Code of Conduct
We welcome all attendees to our convention and embrace diversity, inclusion, and mutual respect. Although we are meeting using Zoom, these items are still relevant. To that end, please keep the following expectations in mind when you join us:
Through advocacy, public awareness, and mentoring, the National Federation of the Blind provides support to members and advocates for our rights to live the lives we want. As a member or guest at our convention, you represent not only yourself, but also our organization. We want you to enjoy your time with us, make new friends, and renew old acquaintances. Although we encourage members to socialize and have fun, the convention also provides an important opportunity to come together to continue the work of our organization, to learn about the important initiatives that we are involved with on a local and national level, and to plan our work for the future.
Please remember these guidelines:
1. Welcome new attendees: Although you will undoubtedly enjoy time with your friends, please reach out to those who have never joined us before and help them to be comfortable. We welcome people from all walks of life and with diverse needs and experiences.
2. Attend and participate in sessions.
3. Harassment will not be tolerated under any circumstances. If your behavior could possibly make anyone uncomfortable, even if you would not be upset by it yourself, do not do or say anything that could be considered inappropriate by anyone.
About the NFB-O
The National Federation of the Blind of Ohio is a 501 (c)3 non-profit organization and a founding affiliate of the National Federation of the Blind. We are proud to be an integral part of the oldest and largest organization of the blind in the United States. We are a diverse group of people dedicated to changing what it means to be blind. Our members work tirelessly to break down the legal, social, and personal barriers to living the lives we want.
The mission of the National Federation of the Blind is to achieve widespread emotional acceptance and intellectual understanding that the real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight but the misconceptions and lack of information which exist. We do this by bringing blind people together to share successes, to support each other in times of failure, and to create imaginative solutions.
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.
The NFB Pledge
I pledge to participate actively in the effort of the National Federation of the Blind to achieve equality, opportunity, and security for the blind; to support the policies and programs of the Federation; and to abide by its constitution.
Membership
The NFB-O is Ohio’s oldest organization comprised of blind and sighted people working together to change what it means to be blind. The 2020 Convention will inspire, empower, and celebrate our accomplishments. The NFB of Ohio also provides encouragement, training, and support to families with blind children and to veterans and people who are losing vision or have become blind later in life.
If you would like to join the Ohio affiliate, you may contact William Turner, Membership Coordinator at (330) 328-9860, and he will refer you to a local chapter in your area.
National Federation of the Blind of Ohio
2020 Convention Principles of Voting
These principles of voting are proposed for consideration by the National Federation of the Blind of Ohio Board of Directors for recommendation to the Convention.
Nothing in these principles of voting is intended to change Article III, Section A of the National Federation of the Blind of Ohio’s constitution. The Convention remains “the supreme authority of the Federation. It is the legislature of the Federation. As such, it has final authority in all issues of policy, and members in attendance may participate in all convention discussions as a matter of right. Any member of the Federation may make or second motions and propose nominations.” These procedures simply implement the method for following the constitution in an electronic convention.
The below principles and procedures are intended to provide clarity and advanced notice on how the convention will be managed in 2020. This document will be read at the NFB of Ohio board meeting on November 6 and then a second time after the roll call of chapters that afternoon. We will then ask the Convention to vote on the proposed policy. Those eligible to vote on this proposal will be any enrolled voters present and voting at the session on November 6 as described below.
An ad hoc committee shall deal with all questions and concerns related to voting. The ad hoc committee will include Eric Duffy, Springfield chapter; Suzanne Turner, Cleveland chapter, and Cheryl Fields, Cleveland chapter. Eric Duffy shall chair the Ad Hoc committee.
Voting
1. All members who are registered for the convention and who have opted into the voter enrollment system by October 18 will constitute the pool of convention voters.
2. All votes will first be conducted by voice. If the president is unable to determine the outcome of any vote, he will then call for an electronic vote. On any vote any individual member who is registered for the convention and who has opted into the voter enrollment system by the specified time may also call for an electronic vote.
3. All electronic voting will be done via SMS (text message) or by phone.
4. Any matter must receive 51 percent support of the votes cast by the convention voters present and voting in order to be affirmed.
5. “Present and voting” will mean the subset of convention voters who actually cast a vote on a given question. Thus voters who are indifferent to a matter cannot block its consideration by the Convention by choosing not to cast a vote.
6. All electronic votes will be allocated three minutes for vote time.
7. If voting indicates 75 percent support for or against a question before three minutes’ having elapsed, the chair may elect to move to the next order of business.
8. An opportunity to practice voting will be offered in the convention on a question that has no impact on the policy of the organization.
Door Prizes and Registration
Registration is now open and free.
Pre-registering for the Ohio Convention by October 27, 2020, makes attendees eligible for door prizes. Door prizes will be drawn during Pre-Convention Festivities, General Sessions, and the Banquet. Registration is required, and you must be present to win. When your name is called, please virtually raise your hand or email ohioprize at gmail.com <mailto:ohioprize at gmail.com> within two minutes; which is the designated window of time to claim your prize.

Southeastern Ohio Center for Independent Living, Jordy D. Stringer, Executive Director
Serving Fairfield and Hocking Counties, founded in 2002, SOCIL is managed by a Board of Directors and staff comprised mostly of persons with various disabilities. The foundation of CIL services is the peer relationship--people with disabilities assisting other people with disabilities as role models and mentors. Each center is unique.
Disability Rights Ohio, Kerstin Sjoberg, Executive Director
Disability Rights Ohio is a non-profit corporation with a mission to advocate for the human, civil and legal rights of people with disabilities in Ohio. We envision a society in which people with disabilities are full and equal members, enjoy the rights and opportunities of all people, are self-directed, make decisions about where, how and with whom they will live, learn, work and play, have access to needed services and supports, and are free from abuse, neglect, exploitation and discrimination.
