Thanks, JD. That would be great if you could do that. My VR counselor

want to make it my goal job, which would mean forfeiting their
assistance with my last semester of school and my real job goal after
that.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. You can live the life
you want; blindness is not what holds you back. Together with love,
hope, and determination, we transform dreams into reality.
