You can participate in online Oogcontact meetings via your computer or phone. So you don’t have to go anywhere. It’s an accessible way to meet others and get information from professionals.
What are we going to do?
Hi,
I’d like to take a moment to introduce myself to you all.
My name is Christina Oost, I’m 48 years old, from Elst, and I was diagnosed with retinoblastoma when I was a few months old. I’ve been working as a coach with children, teens, and families for many years. Recently, I’ve been volunteering with the OOG in OOG Association, specifically as the team coordinator for the youth and young adults team.
As you know, the OOG in OOG Association is dedicated to providing recognition, understanding, and support to people with monocular vision. We would like to survey young people who see with one eye and/or have an ocular prosthesis to find out what their needs are.
That’s why I’d like to get in touch with you to get answers to the following questions:
- What do you need in terms of information, meetings, or other forms of support?
- What challenges do you face in your daily life?
- What successes can you share to help others?
- Do you have any ideas on how the association could better help young people?
We’d love to hear your insights, questions, and requests. That’s why we’re organizing an event on:
An online meeting on Monday, August 31, at 7:00 p.m. We’ll have a chance to get to know each other briefly, explore some ideas, and—most importantly—take the next step with the youth group.
If you don’t have any ideas but just want to talk to other young people, you’re also more than welcome.
I look forward to meeting you online.
Sincerely,
Christina Oost
Youth Team Coordinator, OOG in OOG Association
We’re counting on you to come
We’ve noticed that people sometimes confuse an online peer support meeting with a webinar. This meeting is NOT a webinar that is recorded and can be watched later. This is an online peer support meeting where we’ll have a conversation with one another. When you register, we assume you’ll be attending. If, due to unforeseen circumstances, you’re unable to attend at the last minute, please let us know by emailing info@ver-ooginoog.nl. That way, we won’t be waiting for participants in vain.
