Good morning, Sherri,
I hope this email finds you well and you had a good weekend.

I wanted to reach out and invite both you and the National Federation of
the Blind of West Virginia to the upcoming Symposium on Dis/Ability and
Debility in Appalachia
<https://uknow.uky.edu/campus-news/uk-host-1st-its-kind-symposium-disability-debility-appalachia>,
which is to occur Saturday September 28th, both online and in person at the
University of Kentucky's Healthy Kentucky Research Building. We are working
to make this event an accessible space to connect people passionate about
disability, accessibility, and health equity throughout Appalachia, and
would love for your organization and its members to attend
<https://tinyurl.com/Disability-Appalachia-Register>, table
<http://tinyurl.com/Disability-Appalachia-Tabling>, and/or present
<https://tinyurl.com/Disability-Appalachia-abstract> at the symposium if
this is something you may be interested in. Furthermore, please consider
sharing word of the event to anyone you think may be interested.
Sponsorship opportunities are also still available for interested
organizations. I am attaching a copy of our Call for Participation. Further
information can be found on our webpage at
