Save the Date: 2024 Washington Seminar

by Kyle Walls

From the Editor: Kyle Walls does a great deal of work behind the scenes that is crucial to advancing the legislative and policy goals of the National Federation of the Blind, including writing, research, and logistical support. Here is his reminder about our annual midwinter visit to the halls of Congress:

The 2024 Washington Seminar is only a few months away! Next year’s event will be held at the Holiday Inn Washington Capitol (550 C Street, SW) from Monday, January 29, through Thursday, February 1, and we can’t wait to hear the sound of hundreds of white canes once again confidently striding through the halls of Congress. In accordance with longstanding tradition, the Great Gathering-In, one of the premier Federation events and the official kickoff meeting of the Washington Seminar, will take place on Monday, January 29, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. in the Capitol Ballroom at the hotel. Then all of you will meet with your members of Congress over the next three days. We will have more details, including hotel reservation information, the legislative priorities, and a full schedule of events as the date gets closer. We look forward to seeing all of you in our nation’s capital!
