The National Association of the Deaf (NAD) has been very busy, and has attended many state conferences and rallies. We are also busy attending meetings with various government entities including the Department of Education, the Department of Labor, the Department of Justice, and the Federal Communications Commission. As we have been busy with these conferences, rallies, and meetings, there have been lively discussions about what the NAD has been doing via social media.

At the next board meeting in Minneapolis on Sept. 18-19, the NAD Board will look at its social media policy to figure out how to handle social media such as Twitter, Facebook, and V/Blogs. This meeting will take place right after the NAD Leadership Training Conference (NLTC) on Sept 15-17, in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

You are invited to attend the NLTC on Sept 15-17 and the Board meeting on Sept 18-19. Both events will be at the Millennium Hotel in downtown Minneapolis. For more information on the NLTC, go to http://www.nad.org/nltc
