[Nfbf-l] training centers

[Debby B]

Thanks for all the suggestions. Today's meeting went well. DBS has never had some evaluation done, so Winona has to do that first, then at her IEP meeting we'll discuss summer and college options, equipment, etc. Meanwhile, our counselor made some suggestions, and reminded us there is a new director, so who knows. 


We'll use the time to get ALL our ducks in a row for all Winona's requests. 

 
We appreciate all the advice and support. Don't know that Winona would be where she is without our tremendous affiliate!

Debby, There is choice. They won't listen to that? Can you make a list of 
the things they offer and why she needs those particular skills? Maybe talk 
with Pam Allen and see if she has any suggestions. Just a thought.

Last appeal for assistance in getting Division of Blind Services here in FL 
to help Winona attend the CO Center for the Blind next summer. I know DBS 
doesn't like to fund programs out of state, but she really wants to attend 
the CO program, and we like the NFB philosophy that will come from there.

This will be the summer between graduating high school, and beginning 
college. Hard to believe that time has arrived!


Thanks for any additional suggestions, persuasive comments, etc. We 
appreciate the ones received previously. We are putting together our final 
requests before our meeting on Tuesday.

Thanks!
