Peer Support & Mentoring Program

Blind Low Vision Experience

The Blindness Low Vision Experience program empowers individuals to achieve independence and community access through activities.

Join Us!

Activities include Time To Spare (accessible bowling), Tech Talk, and Mind’s Eye View Peer Support Group. We also offer various outings and special events throughout the year, designed with sensory engagement and accessibility in mind. These outings provide inclusive opportunities for individuals with blindness or vision loss to connect and explore, such as visits to museums, nature centers, and hands-on experiences.

Activities vary in schedule—see calendar listings for details. Accessible documents are provided for all participants.
