[Youth-outreach] Fall Youth Projects

[Marcus Soulsby]

On October 15, the NFB of West Virginia will be holding an informative 
weekend seminar called "Beyond Barriers", a multitopic weekend long seminar 
for blind students, parents, and educators to be held at the West Virginia 
School for the Blind in Romney, WV.  We hope to cover issues like 
technology, education and career planning, and even how to get along with 
peers and manage a social life.  We have quite a few registered already.

> Dear List Members,
> Recently we've subscribed more of our members who work with youth
> programs in our affiliates. It is great that we have so many of you
> interested in helping to build our affiliate youth programs!
>
> The purpose of the Youth-Outreach listserv is to facilitate discussions
> among NFB members interested in building youth outreach programs in
> their chapters and affiliates. The listserve will be used as a forum for
> sharing information, resources, and ideas. This listserv will help
> generate innovative approaches to inspiring and engaging blind youth and
> will build a community of those interested in improving opportunities
> for youth through the NFB.
>
> In recent months, there has been very little activity on this list, but
> this is a great resource that we can use to help each other plan youth
> programs. This is a time when many of us are planning youth programs, so
> I want to start sharing ideas about what we have done. We can talk about
> what we're planning, what worked, and what we might change.
>
> For example, during the MD state convention, on Oct 23, the Maryland
> Parents of blind Children has planned a walking tour of Annapolis for
> our youth, ages 9-18.
>
> What does your affiliate have planned for youth during your state
> convention?
>
> I look forward to hearing all of your ideas!
