The Department of Services for the Blind is happy to announce its Fall Community Forum on Wednesday, Oct. 19, from 7 – 8:30 p.m.

The Community Forums are held virtually to allow input from citizens across the State of Washington and offer an opportunity for members the public to hear directly from the agency, ask questions and raise concerns, and share what’s important to them.

DSB will provide brief updates on:

• 2023 Expectations

• Changes to DSB Youth Services programming

• Pending legislative impacts and requests

The remainder of the event is dedicated to taking questions and comments from the audience members.

Everyone is welcome to log into this virtual town hall! This event is free, but you need to register in advance at https://dsb.wa.gov/events/community-forum.

Closed captioning and ASL interpretation will be provided. For additional assistance with accommodation, please contact Yvonne.Grimes@dsb.wa.gov.
