CONFIDENCE IN MOTION. COMMUNITY IN ACTION. 💚🧡

Every step through the doors of the Blind Social Center opens opportunities to learn, connect, and strengthen independence!

Our programs bring that mission to life through:

• Braille, computer, and iPad instruction
• Independent living and personal management skills
• Cooking with Kanye’
• Book Club
• Arts and crafts
• Friday Fun Day, karaoke, and social activities

Whether you’re building a new skill or finding a community that understands, there’s a place for YOU at TBSC!

🧡 A seat at the table. A voice in the conversation.

Looking back to 2019, when The Blind Social Center hosted “On the Table” with Legacy at one of our former locations. Community members gathered to listen, share ideas, and connect.

Our location has changed, but our commitment to bringing people together and making sure blind individuals are part of the conversation continues.

Shedding Light on Blindness—then, now, and moving forward. 💚
