relacionados con la ceguera.

  Esta nueva lista de carteo electrónico de 
National Federation of the Blind —Federación 
Nacional de Ciegos— es a la vez un comienzo y una continuación.
Es un comienzo porque por primera vez la NFB se 
proyecta oficialmente en otra lengua que no sea 
el inglés.  Es una continuación porque a través de ella
continuaremos llevando el mismo mensaje positivo 
que hemos llevado sobre la ceguera.   Estamos 
seguros que la información que podamos compartir con todo
el que advenga a esta lista, le servirá para 
romper con muchos mitos sobre los ciegos y la ceguera.  ¡Bienvenidos!

This new listserv of the National Federation of 
the Blind is both a new beginning and a 
continuation of our efforts to extend our positive message about
blindness to the Spanish-speaking community. It 
is a new beginning because, for the first time, 
blind Spanish-speakers will be able to connect through
this list to discuss blindness-related topics 
completely in Spanish! A continuation because we 
will work to carry on the NFB’s positive message about blindness
with everyone. We hope that you find all the hope 
and resources that you need to help overcome some 
of your blindness-related obstacles. Welcome!
