The Canadian Council of the Blind--the folks you're meeting with afterwards--have chapters and recreation areas and that sort of thing. I think they are better equipped to provide that type of gathering and peer support. I think peer support is a bad word for just sitting around and talking to your friends. We can get very technical about it, but that's what people need. We're human beings. Everyone needs social interaction. The CCB does a good job and wants to do a better job at that.
