During our May Chapter meeting We spoke about the 2020 national convention
and to the fact it will be virtual and free this year. It was highly
encouraged that people to register for the event at
https://nfb.org/convention 
Pam Goodman presented on Happy Advantage. In summary: happiness is a major
predictor of success and it is an advantage we can cultivate for ourselves.
Happiness is the joy found in the pursuit of our potential. The happiness
advantage is not knowing we need to change but the realization that we can.

At our chapter meetings we do our best to listen to the latest NFB
presidential Release. Due to the timing of our meetings and when the
presidential release is made available, we do not get to listen to the
latest release. Always. Please make time to listen to the Presidential
release to hear what is happening within the NFB movement.
The latest Presidential Release can be found at
