A publication
of the National Federation of the Blind of Connecticut The real problem of blindness is not the lack of eyesight. The real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of information which exist. If a blind person has proper training and opportunity, blindness is only a physical nuisance. The National Federation of the Blind of Connecticut is a state affiliate of the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) and works to improve the lives of blind people in Connecticut. By providing information and education to its members and the public, the NFB of Connecticut is changing what it means to be blind. Articles reproduced in The
Federationist comply with public law 104-197, the Copyright Amendment
of 1996. This law allows authorized entities to reproduce previously published,
non-dramatic literary works in specialized formats, for exclusive use
by blind or disabled people. Table of Contents The National Federation of the Blind of Connecticut is working to change what it means to be blind through the efforts of our members and outreach office to inform members and the public regarding the truth about blindness. Blindness need not be tragic. With proper training and attitude, blind people can lead successful, fulfilling, contributing lives. Please help our efforts by making a tax-deductible donation in any amount to the NFB of CT, 477 Connecticut Blvd, Suite 217, East Hartford, CT 06108.
