The Tarrant County Association for the Blind dba Lighthouse for the Blind of Fort Worth welcomes a new chairman to the board of directors.  Dr. Jennifer Deakins, clinic director at the Community Eye Clinic, assumed this position at the recently held agency’s annual meeting.  Two newly elected board members were also introduced.

Jeff Moten is a 1986 TCU graduate and works in the banking and financial industry.  A long-time resident of the Fort Worth community, he brings not only valuable financial knowledge to the agency but he is also versed in board operations gleaned from his current and past involvement with several other local nonprofit board of directors.

Blake Billings is also TCU graduate and as well a 2012 graduate from the SMU School of Law.  He is currently in practice as an Associate Attorney with the law firm of Harris, Finley & Bogle, P.C.  Billings will also bring a unique perspective to the local Lighthouse board as a result of having served on the East Texas Lighthouse board of directors previously.  Join us in welcoming these new board leaders.
