We are a diverse group of students working towards changing what it
means to be blind. Our members work tirelessly to break down the
legal, social, and personal barriers towards receiving the education
we deserve and living the lives we want.

We are proud to be a part of the oldest and largest blindness
organization in the United States. We believe that we will be stronger
with you . Please join us and stay connected.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life
you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
