This year’s convention will focus on the basics of the National Federation of the Blind. Whether you are new to the movement or a long-time member, you will gain a deeper understanding of who we are, what we believe, and how we create opportunities through organized blind action.

What To Expect
• Back to basics sessions on the philosophy and structure of the National Federation of the Blind
• Leadership development and member engagement
• Advocacy updates and legislative priorities
• Training center information and the importance of high expectations
• Opportunities to connect, organize, and build the future of our movement
At the National Federation of the Blind, we know that blindness is not the characteristic that defines us or our future. Real change happens when blind people come together, raise expectations, and take collective action to live the lives we want.
Positive Change Through United Action means building power together. It means learning our philosophy. It means understanding our programs, training centers, advocacy, and leadership development. It means moving forward as one Federation.

Mark your calendar now.
Invite a friend.
Come ready to learn.
Come ready to lead.
Come ready to create positive change through united action.
Together, we transform dreams into reality.

Audrey T. Farnum, J.D.
President
National Federation of the Blind Oklahoma
