How San Antonio Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired impacts San Antonio's shared Community Vision
Since 1933, the San Antonio Lighthouse for the Blind and Vision Impaired has been empowering the blind and vision impaired through employment, education, and comprehensive rehabilitation services. We currently employ about 500 people, over half of whom are blind or visually impaired. Additionally, our rehabilitation services are offered to all ages at no cost to consumers and include children's education, career support, seniors' programs, assistive technology training, Low Vision Clubs, and professional and community education. Low Vision Clinic exams are also available. Every program is based on the needs and interests of each individual with the goal of promoting self-sufficiency, self-reliance and independence for those with low or no vision, so they may improve their quality of life.
