“been there.”

The National Organization of Parents of Blind Children (NOPBC) is a proud
division of the National Federation of the Blind (NFB). We know 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.
