3rd Senior Division Conference Call for 2016

 

5/11/16 How do you solve the little things in life after significant vision
loss occurs?  Moderator, Jan bailey,  Minnesota

 

My name is Jan Bailey and I was a rehabilitation counselor for 31 

years at State Services for the Blind.   I have a Master's Degree in 

rehabilitation counseling from Utah State University.

 

I have been blind all of my life. Six years ago I became a contract 

vendor for the state of MN and started my own business JB 

Rehabilitation Enterprises.

 

I teach classes to seniors to help them adjust to their vision loss, 

I teach Braille, daily living and cooking skills to blind teens and 

adults, I'm chair of the board of the MN State academies for the 

Blind and Deaf, am president of my local National Federation of the 

Blind chapter, and am also a member of the state board of NFB of MN.

 

I'm a member of the Lions Club, and do a lot of volunteer work for my
church.

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

 

"Whatever you dare to dream, begin." - Goethe
