VisionLink
VisionLink provides services to anyone aged 18 and over. More than 70% of our participants are over 55 with 45% over 65 who are experiencing blindness or some kind of visual impairment. We provide opportunities to learn more about vision loss and vision impairment as well as education and training programs. What we offer gives individuals the tools and information that can support their independence.
VisionLink seeks to inspire all who are living with vision loss to thrive. Services include:
*Vision Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) and Independent Living Classes (Home Management) – Training in the use of compensatory skills including beginner braille and assistive technology that will enable individuals to live safe, productive, and independent lives.
*Low Vision Services – Individualized training designed to develop and strengthen the ability to navigate, communicate, and engage more fully in everyday life with the goal of maximizing your safety and enjoyment. VisionLink provides referrals to low vision professionals and other wraparound resources for individuals experiencing low vision.
*Assistive Technology Classes and Workshops – No matter their current skill or comfort level with technology, VisionLink can expand a participant’s digital and technological literacy to help them overcome challenges, and expand their ability to learn, communicate, and engage in everyday life in the digital world.
*Orientation and Mobility (O&M) training – O&M is provided through one-on-one instruction with certified skilled trainers according to an individual’s goals and abilities. This personalized instruction will help individuals gain the sense of freedom that traveling with a white cane can provide.
At VisionLink, we partner with some of the region’s most notable organizations to help clients discover new interests and reconnect with activities they may have enjoyed in the past.
