This program kicks off our new quarterly series, "Health Matters". Presentations will be followed by time for guests to discuss the topic and to ask questions. Hosted by the Seacoast Village Health Support Team.

Looking to learn more about ways to support a person with visual impairment? Have you ever wondered what it might be like to navigate the world with decreased vision?  Do you have decreased vision and are looking for support?  Come together as a Village to learn the answers to these thoughts and questions from Future In Sight. Future In Sight is a non-profit organization that helps the blind and visually impaired throughout the state. Their occupational therapists are trained to provide instructions on how to tackle daily skills for people with  vision impairment. They are experts with aids and devices such as magnification and lighting, technology training, orientation and mobility training, and social work services. Future In Sight also offers peer support groups and fun social activities both virtually and in person. The goal is to maximize any remaining vision to keep your independence as much as possible.
