“Can you take a photo for me – I want to post it to my Instagram?” It was a beautiful, sunny morning at Crystal Cove State Park. Our hike started from the top of the bluff, and this was a great place for the photo. I checked the direction of the sun, so it would light up the hiker’s face and...

We are thrilled to announce the successful launch of our "Expanding Mental Wellness for the Blind and Visually Impaired" program! 🎉

Recently, we engaged 30 participants in an insightful discussion on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, focusing on physiological needs. Together, we explored the unique barriers our community faces and shared effective solutions to address them.

Following this enriching conversation, 70 of us, including our dedicated volunteers, enjoyed a beautiful hike and a delightful picnic, fostering connection and well-being.

This program is proudly funded by the Department of Mental Health and the Underserved Cultural Communities - Capacity Building Projects. We are grateful for their support in empowering our community.

Image Description:
A large group of participants and volunteers, some using white canes and accompanied by guide dogs, stand together on a scenic overlook with a stunning view of a city skyline in the background. The group is diverse, with people of various ages, genders, and ethnicities, all dressed in comfortable outdoor clothing. Many are wearing hats and sunglasses, and some hold trekking poles or assistive devices. The atmosphere is lively and communal, with bright smiles and a shared sense of achievement.
