PRE-REGISTER NOW!!!

You are cordially invited to attend the 2010 Annual State Convention of the National Federation of the Blind of Louisiana (NFBL).  The NFBL is an organization of blind and visually impaired Louisianians who believe that with the appropriate training, attitude and opportunities, blind people can (and do) achieve their dreams; not the scaled-down dreams resulting from low expectations, but the dreams that all people have.  We believe that it is never too late to learn new techniques and new ways of thought.

Topics Presented

• How to obtain assistance from the Social Security Administration and other human services agencies
• How to deal with day-to-day activities such as reading mail, transportation, preparing meals, clothing care, and socializing
• How to become comfortable with my blindness
• How to know when I need to use a white cane, or when to learn Braille
• How to get help for my blind child
• How the newest technology could benefit me
• What types of employment opportunities are possible
• How a blind person can fully participate in hobbies such as camping, rock climbing, horse back riding, river rafting, acting in a play, and shopping (to name a few)!
