Independent Living

From cooking safely to taking the bus, we share ways people with vision loss can live their daily lives more independently.

Live More Independently

Through assessments, trainings, and peer-to-peer interactions, consumers learn to cook safely, label and organize things, and manage time, money, and medication.

Virtual and in-person trainings focus on peer modeling and idea sharing where everyone can have open conversations about challenges they’ve encountered.

Be Supported on Your Journey

No one should have to experience vision loss alone. Support groups and adjustment services are available to aid consumers in nurturing their emotional well-being throughout their journey with vision loss.

Join a virtual support group offered four times a year, stay connected through the private Facebook group, and contact us if you’re interested in counseling for adjustment to blindness.
