You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams.

From Our National Community

Prepare for National Convention

The NFB National Convention is the largest gathering of blind people in the world. It is the premier event for training, support, and information for the blind community.
Attend Convention

Free White Cane Program

The white cane allows you to travel independently and safely—no blind person should be without one. We offer you a free one. You can order a new one every six months.
Request a free white cane!

Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

The National Federation of the Blind celebrates and embraces diversity, equity, and inclusion as core values in its mission to achieve equality, opportunity, and security for the blind.
