NFB State Conventions
The state convention of an NFB affiliate represents, in most cases, an annual opportunity for Federationists and other interested people throughout a state to assemble. These conventions generally feature substantive blindness-related programming, deliberations on state and local policy matters, administration of internal organizational business, special exhibits of interest to members, and more. Like the National Convention of the NFB, state conventions allow members from local chapters across a particular state to gather, reunion-style, to renew old acquaintances and meet new friends. The mix of formal and casual events work together to create an event that most look forward to attending every year. A few of our affiliates hold two conventions each year. Each affiliate’s convention is slightly different, reflecting the local traditions, practices, and cultural flavors of the state. Without exception, though, you can be sure that a state convention of the NFB promises to be the highlight of the affiliate’s year. Plan to attend the NFB affiliate convention in your state this year!
