Family and Caregiver Support Day
As your friend or family member learns to adjust to their
vision loss and increase their independence, it is important for you to learn how
to encourage and support them. At New Jersey Foundation for the Blind (NJFFB), we
believe family and friends play a key role in the rehabilitation and success of
our students. In an effort to support you as you care for a family member or
friend who is blind or visually impaired, we are inviting you to a complimentary
Family Support Day.
