Announces Upcoming Braille Class

                        The National Federation of the Blind of Texas

place beginning on Saturday, August 20, 2011, from 11:00 A.M. to 12:15

            Blind youth, blind adults, and blind children and their
parents are welcome to register. Sighted adults who have a connection
with blind people are also welcome to enroll.

                        At present, 90 percent of blind children are
not taught Braille, and 70 percent of the blind adults are unemployed.
With the upcoming Braille class, prospective students will learn to
read and write Braille, as well as learn various ways of using Braille
in their daily lives.

knowledge, fulfillment, self-esteem, and belief in themselves by
learning a whole new system of reading and reading.
