LightHouse Connection: A Healthier Aging Workshop Series for Ashby Villagers with Impaired Vision
Rehabilitative Services & Independent Living Skills
A collaboration between the LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired and Ashby Village is offering a series of free one-hour virtual sessions.
This month, the Rehabilitative Services & Life Skills session will talk about Independent Living Skills — things people need from the minute they wake up in the morning until bedtime. Everyday situations will be discussed, like tips for organizing mail, cooking in the kitchen, and performing tasks in a non-visual manner. The discussion will also include Orientation & Mobility with a hint of how GPS and tactile maps can be useful. Finally, come learn how Braille can make a difference in your life.

The LightHouse Connection series is intended to provide information and resources offered by LightHouse as a supplement to Ashby Village’s ongoing Low Vision Support Group discussions. There is no obligation to attend all LightHouse Connection sessions, and each session will be repeated to provide more opportunities to participate.
