Whereas National Federation of the Blind (NFB) Conventions in the US provide a wealth of inspiration, information and fellowship to persons who are blind, and

Whereas NFB Conventions provide invaluable opportunities to make contact with and learn from successful blind professionals in their field, and

Whereas those who attend NFB Conventions report a boost in self confidence and greater self expectations,

Be it resolved that this organization dedicate significant resources to enable as many blind Canadians as possible to attend NFB Conventions.
