Hello Federation Family!

 

April is recognized as National Stress Awareness Month and this allows for a time that reminds us just how important it is to take care of our mental and emotional well-being.

 

But let’s be real…

 

Leadership is not always easy.
The work can be heavy.
The challenges can be real.

 

So the question becomes:
How do leaders stay strong when the work gets hard?

 

The South Carolina Organization of Blind Black Leaders (SCOBBL), a division of the National Federation of the Blind of South Carolina, invites you to join us for a powerful and honest conversation titled:
“Resilience: How Leaders Stay Strong When the Work Gets Hard”

 

🗓 Thursday
⏰ 7:00 p.m. ET
📍 NFB of SC Zoom Platform: click 👉🏾 here <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/8032543777?pwd=QTVQd2RzN3l6QnNmZ0FmSnp6NG8vQT09>   to join the meeting

 

This session will explore real-life strategies, and we will be guided through conversations around building resilience while navigating challenges in leadership, in blindness, and in everyday life.

 

This conversation will be facilitated by a strong leader within our division:
✨ Michelle Scott, SCOBBL At-Large Board Member and President of the Charleston Chapter of NFB of SC.

 

Michelle will be joined by dynamic leaders who bring both lived experience and leadership insight:
✨ Debra Canty, President of the Sumter Chapter of the NFB of South Carolina
✨ Stacie Leap, President of the Greater Philadelphia Chapter of the NFB of Pennsylvania

 

Together, they will guide us through a discussion that is not just about surviving leadership, but truly thriving through it.

 

If you have ever felt the weight of responsibility…
If you have ever had to push through despite obstacles…
If you are leading now or preparing to lead…

 

Then, this space is for you!

 

Come ready to listen, reflect, and grow. And don’t come alone—please bring someone who needs to hear this message that speaks to both LEADERSHIP and LIFE in general.

 

Let’s grow stronger together. 💛

 

Warmly,

 

Janice Bright, MA OL
South Carolina Organization of Blind Black Leaders (SCOBBL)
A Division of the National Federation of the Blind of South Carolina
