Vision rehabilitation services can “dramatically increase confidence, safety, and independence” among the almost 20 million people in the U.S. who live with blindness and low vision. Although many programs are available, too few people are participating in them. To help spread the word about the importance and benefits of these specialized services, VisionServe Alliance (VSA) is launching Vision Rehabilitation Week. A comprehensive toolkit is being developed, along with social media messages, suggestions for hosting activities and events and sharing success with local media. For more information, and links to additional resources, visit the webpages announcing that “Vision Rehabilitation Week is June 10 to 16” on the websites for VSA and National Today.
