Michigan Association of Blind Students (MIABS)
Michigan Association of Blind Students:
The Michigan Association of Blind Students is a proud division of the National Federation of the Blind of Michigan. We advance the lives of our members and all blind students in the state by raising expectations, advocating in and out of the classroom and developing ways for everyone to get involved. We know that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind students, because low expectations create obstacles between blind students and our dreams. Our collective power, determination, and diversity achieve the aspirations of all blind students in Michigan.
We hold weekly meetings via zoom. For meeting dates and times or to learn more about what our division does and to join please contact President Jeffery Crouch or Treasurer Danielle Agajan using the contact information below.
