Atlanta Metropolitan Chapter
Atlanta Metropolitan Chapter
The Atlanta Metropolitan Chapter is on the move!
We are a chapter that is dedicated to empowering members to be all that we can be, to Live The Life We Want! Encouraging independence and advocating for our right to be inclusive in our community along with our sighted peers.
Through our Tech Talk demonstrations in monthly meetings we are armed with new technology skills, informed about legislative issues that affects the blind, using physical movement exercise for better health & wellness. and building our chapter awareness and membership through our community outreach activities.
The current fundraising goals are to implement the first Thelma Godwin Scholarship for Blind High School Seniors entering college, providing financial assistance for individuals who wish to attend the National Federation of the Blind National Convention, and purchasing small assistive living devices for members.
