We have many committees,groups, and divisions, in NFB. The sports and recreation division promotes being able to achieve equality in participating in sports or working in the field of sports.  This is why we have blind lawyers, educators, and other divisions or groups in NFB. This group would help members advocate, find resources to be able to worship, participate equally, and maybe connect others to our organization who are blind, as well as, help those wanting to be employed or already employed in this field. It is no different than any other group or division within as we seek to achieve, equality, opportunity,and security for the blind.
