HALIFAX COUNCIL OF THE BLIND

Halifax Council of the Blind has been a chapter of the Florida Council of the Blind since the early 1960's. It is located in Daytona Beach, which is known for the International Speedway, driving on the beach, over 5 area colleges and institutions of higher learning, numerous hopping entertainment and cultural opportunities, a good public transportation and paratransit service, the Blind Services campus and several blindness-related agencies.
