Sierra Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired

Format           Program

 

Sierra Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired offers full services, at no charge, to clients in the foothill communities of Nevada and Placer Counties and beyond and helps blind and visually impaired individuals stay in their homes and out of institutions. Sierra Services provides a comprehensive health program of peer and other counseling support services, educational support, social development and other community based programs to foster physical and mental health, and to develop a personalized program designed to develop independence. The program provides transportation services, promotes independence through Orientation and Mobility and Independent Living instruction, provides a library of visual aids, and serves as the advocate for the blind and visually impaired in isolated and rural communities of Nevada and Placer County, and their geographically contiguous communities.  The base program is counseling, independent living skills instruction, and transportation to all medical appointments, as well as community access and vision related assistive devices, which are provided at cost or free to the client.
