October is Blindness Awareness Month! As someone who is visually impaired, I’m on a mission to raise awareness and build connections within our community. This month is a great reminder of the importance of understanding and supporting those of us with visual impairments. In February, I launched Brightside, a support group designed for individuals experiencing vision loss to share their experiences, resources, and encouragement. My aim is to foster a safe space where everyone can connect, learn, and grow together. Let’s collaborate to raise awareness, break down barriers, and uplift one another. I invite you to join our community, share your experiences, and help highlight the realities of living with visual impairment. Design done by our resident graphic designer, Olivia Hart ! #BlindnessAwarenessMonth #VisualImpairment #Community #Support #Brightside
