This is a reminder about the Ohioans with Disabilities Council Meeting. We
think it is very important that those of us who can attend make every effort
to do just that. This committee will be reviewing several policies and
making recommendations that effect people with disabilities in Ohio. You can
find the information after my name.

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
