This is intended to collect material about our members and our programs. I am asking for your help. We need more stories. We want to tell about our authentic experiences. There are two categories we are soliciting right now. <br>1. Challenges of blindness – sometimes it is not easy to deal with blindness especially when it comes to others’ reactions. <br>2. The impact of our national convention on people.<br>If you could write to me offline and share your stories that would be helpful. These need not be polished and the best length is probably 200 to 300 words. Please include your full name, phone, and email address. <br> <br>Thanks for your help with this project. <br> <br> <br>Patti S.
