of showing up, speaking up, then shutting up and being an active listener
and notetaker. Many communicate, but few really connect. If you are a
student, someone looking for a job, or someone interested in being promoted,
advocacy skills are essential for success at home, school, the community and
work! Excellent communicators, advocacy, listening and notetaking skills are
keys that can unlock doors, opportunities and your potential!

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.
