[Nfbv-announce] NFBV supports activities that develop our blind youth-- Blind Judo

[John Bailey]

At this year's state convention of the National Federation of the Blind of 
Virginia, many of the scheduled activities revolved around getting our blind 
youth to expand their world by pursuing new activities.

A few years ago, the NFBV hosted a full weekend of activities just for our 
blind youth where they also challenged themselves physically and mentally to 
do things they did not think they could. One of those activities was Blind 
Judo.

Below is a link to one of our blind mentors talking about how the program 
was run and about the benefits to the youth who participated.

There are titles at the beginning. The video will start in about 20 seconds.
