CELEBRATING BLINDNESS AWARENESS MONTH
Two smiling girls wearing matching blue Vision Resource Center shirts sit side by side on an amusement park ride. One gives a thumbs-up while the other makes a peace sign. They look happy and excited, enjoying a sunny day outdoors.
Three adults who are blind or visually impaired sit together indoors, each holding a white cane. They wear sunglasses and white visors with relaxed smiles.
A woman gently pets a small black-and-white baby goat held by another woman, while others stand nearby smiling. The group is outdoors on a grassy area during a Vision Resource Center community event.
