Moving Forward and Staying in Place: How Innovation Gets it Done

The coronavirus has disrupted society about as much as any one event could. It has caused us to work hard at figuring out what businesses are essential and what tasks we can do from home for both essential and nonessential work. Regardless the classification we might fall under, the National Federation of the Blind considers itself essential, and accordingly we have tried to conduct our programs from home. We have been immeasurably assisted by the kind of technology that exists today: email, texting, and setting up audio and video conferences.
COVID-19 has added work to an already full plate, so there is plenty for us to do if only we can be innovative enough to figure out how to do it. Luckily, Federation and innovation in the same sentence are almost redundant. Here are some shots of how we are learning to shelter in place and still do the work that this dynamic organization requires.
