Coping with blindness and vision loss.

Every Friday morning, 10 AM to 12 PM, in person at EBCB or on Zoom.

Purpose:

The EBCB support group offers a safe space to be with others that are both new to blindness and have long-time experience.  In each group meeting you can:

• Adjust your attitude, emotions,  and feelings about yourself and your blindness to better cope with the transition from visual to non-visual living.
• Learn to advocate for yourself with friends and family.
• Receive support from others in the group during times of depression and mourning of vision loss.
• Learn what you can do to gain new skills to function in your daily life with confidence.
• Hear others share suggestions and personal life experiences and challenging changes that have occurred.
• Feel free to ask questions.
