6:30 PM EDT. - Residential/State Schools for the blind, Resource Rooms, and
or Itinerant Teaching 

Join in on a discussion with NFB of Ohio, as we visit; which educational
instruction was received by members. We will hear from Adelmo Vigil,
National Board Member and New Mexico Affiliate president expound on his
experiences as a blind student in the public school system and then
attending a state residential school for the blind. Adelmo has served in
many capacities, such as, a Professional Teacher in the Public School
System, appointed to the Board of Regents of the New Mexico School for the
Blind, the Director of the New Mexico Commission for the Blind and in other
various professions. We will also  welcome participants accounts on "what is
the most appropriate placement for today's blind, visually impaired and
deaf/blind children?" Although, there is no right or wrong answer, this
interaction will prove to be most fascinating.

4:00 PM to 5:30PM EDT. - " Loving Through A Window" 

Join NFB of Ohio for a transparent and honest conversation on "Loving
Through A Window".

This heartfelt discussion will address social distancing experiences between
adults and children during the pandemic. 

As visitations are limited, emotions are strained because of little physical
interactions. Thus, that hug and embrace from your little one or a
face-to-face conversation with a parent or grandparent who is in a nursing
home.
