[NFBP-Talk] Zoom Events Today

[Joseph Drenth]

Here are the Zoom events we are hosting today, Wednesday, April 8, 2020:

 

Noon to 12:45PM

JAWS Training with Joe

Please join us as we explore the capabilities and usability of the
industry-leading JAWS screen reading application. We will show you the best
practices, tips, and tricks for using JAWS to operate a computer from the
beginner to the advanced level. The training will be focused on Windows 10
and the Office 365 productivity suite, but other applications and web sites
will also be discussed as appropriate or upon request. Bring your questions,
too, and we will do our best to answer them. The trainer, Joseph Drenth, is
certified for JAWS by Vispero, maker of the JAWS screen reader application.

 

1PM - 1:30PM

Fitness and Wellness Warrior's Time with Lily and caitlin

Due to all of us being stuck at home during this difficult time, it is
important to boost our immune system and make sure that we are still getting
some exercise. During this fitness and wellness session we will be talking
about ways of how to boost the immune system, and about how to take care of
our mental and emotional health. We will be doing brief workouts,
meditations, and yoga over Zoom.  I have learned a lot of these techniques
during my college years of taking integrative health care courses.

 

2PM - 3PM

Coffee with Emily

We will discuss legislative issues facing blind Americans, laws affecting
the education of your blind children, and our Braille Enrichment for
Literacy and Learning (BELL) programs scheduled for this summer. Parents,
teachers of blind students, and anyone interested in the topics of
legislation, parenting, and education are encouraged to join us. Please note
that this event is informative and does not represent any form of legal
advice.
