ADVOCACY

NFADB developed a committee, the Policy, Information, and Education (PIE) Committee, in 2017 devoted to sharing information about legislative activities impacting our families with loved ones who are DeafBlind. 

The Policy, Information, and Education (PIE) Committee's mission:  This committee will provide public support for or make recommendations for particular causes or policies that will benefit the DeafBlind community.  

The PIE Committee activities include: (1) development of NFADB's first position papers, (2) hosting family chats focused on family advocacy to build a network of family advocates. (3) organizing family advocacy visits to The Hill.
