Blindness: Time For Action!

In a fast paced, action packed one day event, the Canadian Federation of the Blind is setting forth our action plan to deal with some of the most serious issues faced by blind individuals.

Come to Nanaimo and help make the plan! Then plan to work together to make a difference!

What are the civil rights issues that impact our lives?

How will changes in technology improve our opportunities?

Will Unified English Braille (UEB) help build a renaissance in Braille literacy, or does it create additional barriers?

How can we make sure that our voices are heard in the halls of government?

What are blind people doing to create opportunities for themselves?

On Saturday, May 2, plan to be at the Ramada Inn in Nanaimo to help determine the answers to these and other vital questions!

Convention registration is $40, which includes lunch and the evening banquet.

Transportation will be arranged for those traveling up island from Victoria.

The Ramada Inn is convenient to the ferry for those traveling from the Mainland.

Watch www.cfb.ca for registration details and an easy to use form.

The Nanaimo Ramada Inn is the place to be on Saturday, May 2!
