Our Mission
Blind Beginnings Society has worked tirelessly since its inception in 2008 to inspire and support children and youth in BC who are blind and low vision.
Through participation in independence and confidence building workshops, recreational activities, leadership programs, and summer camps, children and youth develop the skills and confidence to challenge their personal limits and create fulfilling lives.
About Blind Beginnings Society
At Blind Beginnings, we see the enormous possibilities in children and youth who are blind or low vision and we passionately challenge ANY perspectives that limit what they’re capable of or achieving.
No other organization in BC offers the range of programs that we do. We provide services for ages birth to 19 and incorporate programs and support for the whole family, because we recognize that blindness impacts parents and siblings too.
We provide counseling and peer support for parents, so they learn how to best support their child.
We offer youth a variety of programs and support to help them build their skills and confidence, including independent living skills, employment preparation, and support groups.
