NFB Camp is a childcare option offered during our national convention for children ages six weeks to twelve-years-old, both blind and sighted. Preregistration is required.
The program features lessons from the NFB BELL® Academy curriculum, in addition to a variety of activities including art projects, orientation, mobility, and daily living skills training, music, movement, and mathematics. We separate the children by age and provide activities appropriate for each age group.
Our staff is vetted through background checks, training, and experience working with blind children. We are grateful for support from our national divisions and committees, the National Organization of Parents of Blind Children, and our NFB BELL Academies.
