NFB Jernigan Institute Teacher Leader Seminar
The National Federation of the Blind understands
how important it is for teachers working in a low- incidence field, like blindness, to find opportunities to collaborate and network. In an effort to foster learning, interaction, and community, the NFB is collaborating with the National Organization of Professionals in Blindness Education to host the first-ever Teacher Leader Seminar at the NFB Jerni- gan Institute!
This three-day conference, January 27-29, 2012,

Participants are strongly en- couraged to take advantage of social media before, during, and after this seminar to stay in contact with each other and teachers in the field. This conference
