[kevan at nfbco.org]

Greetings Colleagues, 

 

As many of you know, two weeks ago we hosted a blindness and low vision
services town hall zoom call. We appreciate your involvement in that call as
well as your involvement in all of our Mountain Time at 5 zoom calls. During
our discussion with the Director of DVR, Kristin Corash, Blindness and Low
Vision Services Unit Manager Krista Hedlund and her team, folks had some
great questions. If you have questions or if you are in need of services
from the agency please see below. Krista has sent us some names and contact
info for individuals at our Vocational Rehabilitation Agency who are in the
best position to be of assistance depending on your question and your need.
Thank you.
