One of the things I most enjoy when traveling the nation to talk with family and professional caregivers is meeting the amazing advocates working hard to make the life of their constituent groups better.
I am pleased (and proud) to say that The Blinded Veterans Association (BVA) which traces it’s roots back to the end of World War II will be hosting an expert Q and A panel entitled: Best Practices: advice, support, and adaptive technologies for family caregivers and the visually impaired at their national conference next week in Tulsa, OK. The panel will be moderated by yours truly and is open to area caregivers, as well as conference participants.
The Blinded Veterans Association is an organization of blinded veterans helping blinded veterans. Through their service programs, regional groups, resources, and advocacy before the legislative and executive branches of government, their aim is to make life better for blinded veterans.
There is no charge for any BVA service and membership is not a prerequisite to obtain help. The organization’s mission is to promote the welfare of blinded veterans so that, notwithstanding their disabilities, they may take their rightful place in the community and work with their fellow citizens toward the creation of a peaceful world.
Spending time with good folks doing good work for our wounded warriors.
Now that’s a great way to start the week!
