Hello NFB Family and Friends,



The NFB is for everyone, blind and sighted alike.  Please register for our
Virginia State Convention and see what I mean!



This message outlines many events and meetings planned for the month.
Almost all chapter and division meetings are using the Virginia Affiliate’s
Zoom account and all meetings are open to the public.


All calls are available using the telephone dial in option or through the
free and totally accessible Zoom app on Windows, Apple IOS, or Google
Android. You can also access just using your Web Browser.



Click on the zoom link to be automatically entered into the meeting.  The
one tap mobile does have a bit of a delay, approximately 20 seconds from
start to you being put into the meeting. You do not have to enter, push or
do anything except be patient and wait.   When using a landline or older
cell phone, you do have to type in the meeting ID, which is provided.  It’s
that simple, no stressing.


For all these services, it is important to be on mute when you are not
speaking.  The presenter will provide specific instructions at the
beginning of the meeting, but in general, star 6 mutes and unmutes from a
phone, ALT + A (like Alpha) mutes and unmutes on a computer and smartphones
and tablets have a mute button on the meeting control toolbar.
  Additionally, just like in-person Federation meetings, please preface
your comments by stating your name and being recognized by the organizer
before speaking.
