Continuously, the Foundation for the Blind and Visually Impaired strives to ensure the complete integration, equality, independence, acceptance, and esteem of all blind Americans.
Our advocacy work has concentrated on education, employment, transportation, voting, and civil rights and is guided by resolutions adopted annually at our national convention. As one of the leading organizations of blind Americans, we are able to give blind individuals, their families, organizations for the blind, companies, and the government with professional counsel in these areas.
