With the proper training, and possibly adaptive aids, blind and partially sighted people can continue the same activities they enjoyed before their vision loss, and remain living independently within their homes. For example, some basic adaptations enable our participants to garden, cook, perform woodwork, bowl and golf, sew clothes, play board games or cards, and several other activities. All of our services work towards improving the quality of life and level of independence available to blind and partially sighted participants.

The mission of the Lilac Services For The Blind is to provide blind and partially sighted people with training and adaptive aids that will allow them to live satisfying lives by restoring, maintaining, or increasing their independence. Our priority is to help blind and partially sighted people gain the same access as sighted people to available technology and informational resources. We wholeheartedly believe in our mission and continue to provide our services free of charge.
