The National Federation of the Blind welcomes all blind people, parents of blind children, blind students, those losing vision, and more. We are a family of members and friends that knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. You can live the life you want.

How to Join

The best way to become a member of the National Federation of the Blind is to attend a chapter meeting. Membership in a chapter or division will automatically grant you membership in your state affiliate and the national organization.

Currently, our chapter meetings take place on the first Tuesday of each month from 6:30PM to 8:00PM. They are most often on Zoom, but on occasion, we meet in person. Reach out to Reggie Herbert, our chapter president, if you’d like to join us at an upcoming meeting by sending an email to missoulachapter@nfbmt.org .

As a member, you will have:

• Access to national and local resources and information
• The support of a powerful community
• Connections to blind mentors
• Access to training
• National and local NFB voting rights
• A subscription to our monthly e-newsletter

Introduction to the Organized Blind Movement Calls

Take advantage of this opportunity to hear from active members and leaders on the myths and uncertainties of the Federation. Geared toward people who are unfamiliar with our organization, these calls will cover membership, philosophy, and purpose.
