2024 AFB Leadership Conference

Leading in the Digital Age

A special thank you to all who joined us for the 2024 American Foundation for the Blind Leadership Conference (AFBLC), which was held at the Hyatt Regency in Minneapolis, Minnesota, from September 23rd - 25th!!

We were delighted to hold this year’s conference in Minneapolis. The motto for this great American city is “Avant,” which is French for “Forward.” This motto plays a key role as we convene leaders and future leaders from every aspect encompassing the field, offering an engaging program that will look to the future of leadership impacting not just the millions of Americans who are blind, but the more than 42 million Americans who live life with vision loss each day.

Featuring a rich history of fostering innovation and empowerment, the AFB Leadership Conference is a pivotal platform to convene corporations, advocacy groups, government representatives, and the blind and low-vision community as we work together to shape the future of inclusion. Join us at the forefront of change as we navigate the intersection of technology and empowerment, paving the way for a more inclusive future for all.

Thank You to Our Sponsors

The AFB team extends our sincerest thanks to our attendees for your participation and engagement, and to our 2024 AFBLC exhibitors and sponsors, whose support and contributions are invaluable to us and our mission of creating a future of endless possibilities for people who are blind or have low vision.
