About the Foundation for Blind Children
Founded in 1952, the Foundation for Blind Children
has become a national model for agencies serving the blind. Since the
number of blind babies born in Arizona and those referred for services
has increased over 300% in the last ten years, the number of children
and adults served through FBC has grown to over 2,000 in just the last
year.
As the only agency of its kind in Arizona, the Foundation for Blind Children is an essential resource to
families and children with blindness or low vision. Without FBC, blind
children would not get the opportunities that should be available to
every child - to learn, play sports, participate fully in the world
around them and become successful, productive adults.
We
provide a comprehensive system of services, which optimizes the blind,
or visually impaired child's development and which provides many
opportunities to lead a meaningful and productive life--starting with
infancy, through preschool, elementary and secondary education
throughout college and adulthood. Many of our children graduate from
college, pursue successful careers and lead lives filled with enriching
possibilities.
The mission of the Foundation for Blind Children is to help blind and
visually impaired children, adults and their families lead lives of
independence and dignity through mastery of their environment. This
will be accomplished through education, training, counseling,
communication and technology.
