Blind people and their families, people who are losing vision, families with blind children, and others are invited to join the National Federation of the Blind of Missouri at our annual convention the weekend of April 12-14, 2024.

The National Federation of the Blind provides blind people with opportunities for networking and mentorship. Our annual state convention thus serves as a venue for blind Missourians to exchange practical ideas to improve our lives. Our exhibit hall will highlight various sponsors offering products and services that help blind people live the lives we want. The complete agenda is available at www.nfbmo.org.

“We know that blindness does not hold us back from living the lives we want. This convention is an opportunity to explore what blindness is and how blind people can thrive at work, school, home, and in the pursuit of other interests,” said Shelia Wright, President of the National Federation of the Blind of Missouri.
