In this episode of White Canes Connect, we talk with NFB Executive Director of Advocacy and Policy John Paré. John first learned of the National Federation of the Blind as a user of NFB-NEWSLINE®. That led him to positions at the chapter level, then the affiliate level, and finally to working at the National Center in Baltimore. John gives us a background on Washington Seminar and goes over the agenda for this years event.
