>>The NFB Jernigan Institute is pleased to announce the NFB Early
>>Explorers Program. This program is designed to introduce young blind
>>children (ages birth to 7) and their families to the long white
>>cane. Through the program parents will receive the tools, support,
>>and confidence needed to become their child's first cane travel
>>teacher. Providing children with an early start to independent
>>movement and travel ensures that children will be more confident and
>>curious travelers throughout life. Families participating in the
>>program will receive a free child-sized white cane, Travel Tales (a
>>quarterly e-newsletter), an informational DVD, and so much
>>more!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
