This fall, step into a weekend of learning, laughter, and connection at
the NFB of Virginia’s 2025 State Convention. <http://nfbv.org/convention>
Curious about what’s new?
We’ve built programming to keep seniors engaged, informed, and

✨ Highlights include:

Finance & Technology Seminar – Learn how today’s tools can help you
manage money, stay connected, and live more independently.
-
Transportation Advocacy Seminar – Discover how advocates across Virginia
are improving transit options for blind people—and how you can be part of
the change.
-
Gun Safety with Simulator – Get hands-on training in a safe environment,
building confidence through practical instruction.

Birding Without Vision – Join us right on the beach for a guided
birdwatching experience that proves nature can be enjoyed without sight.

covering emergency preparedness, accessible prescriptions, and practical
self-care strategies to support safe, independent living.
