Community Events, Speaking, & Seminars

Outreach

The Seeing Hand Association works in and with the community. Our outreach programs involve partaking in community events, visiting and participating at speaking events, and also hosting and joining seminars.

Personal Adjustment

The greatest challenge faced by people who are blind is not the physical lack of sight, but the limiting beliefs that society holds about their abilities.


Blindness doesn’t have to keep anyone from living a happy, productive life. Each step toward independence is one more step toward living a quality life.


Our services challenge, encourage and empower individuals to build confidence, independence and self-esteem.
