Find Vision Rehabilitation and Low Vision Information

The mission of the RRTC is to enhance employment and independent living outcomes for individuals who are blind or visually impaired through research, training, education, and dissemination.

The Information and Referral Resource Project provides information and network links by state on the following topics: low vision services, organizations, products, publications, radio reading services, rehabilitation and blindness resources, sports and recreation.

The Business Enterprise Program is a training and entrepreneurial program that teaches individuals who are blind or have low vision to manage and run businesses, most often vending operations, including snack bars and cafeterias in schools, corporate offices, and Federal and state facilities.

Project H.I.R.E. (Hip, Independent and Ready for Employment) is conducting empirical research on transition services that lead to competitive employment outcomes for transition-age individuals with blindness or other visual impairments.
