Our Mission
It is the mission of the Gold Coast Blind and Visually Impaired Association Inc. to provide a friendly supportive environment for people experiencing blindness or low vision to connect and share resources and information that will empower, encourage and inspire them to lead full and satisfying lives within the community.
Some may think of a visual impairment as a disability. We’d rather focus on our abilities and the opportunity it gives us to develop our other senses.
