Hello Tabsters,
Just a friendly reminder that the deadline for the Tabs Washington
Seminar scholarship is fast approaching. This scholarship will provide
you an opportunity to travel to Washington D.C to work alongside
fellow Federation members to advocate to Congress about disability
rights legislation. The scholarship will cover your hotel and airfare.
We are asking you to write an essay of no more than 500 words talking
about three issues that directly affect the blind population that you
believe Congress can pass. The deadline to submit your essay is
December 12th at 11:59pm and please email them to both Harry Staley at
hstaley at nfbtx.org
and myself at
jfranks@@nfbtx.org
Good luck

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.
