NFB convention cane travel volunteer opportunity + CEU's
by s.colin.wong＠gmail.com 28 Jun '24

28 Jun '24

Hello all, Forwarding on behalf of Anil Lewis. Note that one of the times precede the NBPCB Rehab Conference. However, this activity does qualify for CEU's under category 5. All: WE have eleven students attending the national convention as part of the NFB Career Quest, and we would like them to have the opportunity to be exposed to some structured discovery travel instruction. As they are staying in the Rosen Plaza, it would be ideal if the experience included traveling to and or from the Rosen Center. WE are interested in knowing if anyone is open to working with students that arrive on July 2, or available to work on travel from the Rosen Plaza at 7:00 a.m. on July 3. Otherwise, let us know when you are available and we will attempt to schedule time with one of the students. We apologize for the last minute request, but would appreciate anyone who would be willing to assist. If you are available and willing, please email Nikki Jackson at njackson at nfb.org <mailto:njackson at nfb.org> . Thanks, Mr. Anil Lewis, M.P.A. Executive Director National Federation of the Blind Jernigan Institute (410) 659-9314 ext. 2374 (Voice) Warm regards, Colin Wong, M.A., NOMC O&M Instructor Phone: 480-886-4445 Email: <mailto:S.colin.wong at gmail.com> S.colin.wong at gmail.com

NFB Free White Cane Application Form: Sizing Instructions
by PRESIDENT＠alumni.ecu.edu 17 Jun '24

17 Jun '24

Hi everyone, There is something on the NFB Free White Cane program request form that I find a bit off, so I am writing to folks here to ask if this is what the rest of you are doing. The Free White Cane program application form can be found here: https://freecane.nfb.org/ In the application it reads: Cane Sizing For starter canes: measure to your armpit. Seasoned travelers: measure to your chin or higher. ## If the only cane a person has is one of these heights, and it is not reasonably easy to get a longer one, I am not opposed to working with them, but I personally aim for a cane to reach to some part of their nose. This is achievable for basically everyone because a typical adult nose is at least 2 inches long so that some cane will match this spot. If this strikes a lot of people as odd, do you think we should try to get the instructions on the form amended? Aloha, Justin Justin MH Salisbury, MEd, NOMC, NCRTB English Pronouns: he/him/his Phone: 808.797.8606 Email: President at Alumni.ECU.edu
