The AFB Leadership Conference (AFBLC) seeks to improve the quality of programs and services to blind and visually impaired children and adults. AFBLC provides a forum in which leadership personnel, in both education and rehabilitation, have the opportunity to increase their awareness of student and client needs, expand their knowledge, refine leadership skills, and share concerns and strategies.
We were delighted to speak with Tanya Hilligoss, director of outreach for the Nebraska Center for the Education of Children Who Are Blind or Visually Impaired, another first-time participant in an AFB Leadership Conference.

Tanya Hilligoss: Hi, I'm Tanya Hilligoss from Nebraska, I'm the outreach director. This is my first time attending the AFB conference and I've really enjoyed networking with people, meeting some new colleagues, seeing some new faces, and some familiar faces, as well.
Have really enjoyed the content of the conference. I did attend the full-day on the CVI information, and I found that very useful, and I look forward to attending future conferences.
