No one gets this news without having a complex set of reactions such as denial, anger, fear and depression. If you have recently learned that your vision is diminished or likely to worsen in the future, you may be experiencing any or all of these feelings. You may be wondering how you will go on doing what you have always done, how you will maintain your independence and how you will take care of yourself and your family. Some people think that because they have diminished eyesight they are not a full person. You may be having similar thoughts; you may be feeling very alone. One of your concerns may be that you dont know where to turn for guidance, advice, assistance, support, comfort, information and instruction. We at the Office of Services to the Blind want you to know that you are not alone. Although only you can make the adjustment to vision loss for yourself, there are many services and support systems that can help you. This Handbook has been prepared to give you an overview of services available to you and to get you started on the path to a healthy and positive future. First, let us spend a few minutes expressing our thoughts about persons with visual impairments. Blindness does not equal helplessness or despair. Millions of people in the Our philosophy is that the essence of a person does not reside in the ability to see or to perform any particular physical function, but rather in the spirit. The capacity to set the course of ones own life and the conviction to stay on course despite the inevitable obstacles of destiny come from the will. If one such obstacle is the loss of eyesight, it is the inner person who makes the choice between defeat and adjustment. Thus, the onset of a visual disability need not be a barrier to an individuals ability to attain a rich and fulfilling life. Blind and visually impaired individuals are an integral part of our society. They are employees, breadwinners, spouses, parents and grandparents. They care about the same life functions as everyone else: earning a living, raising a family, being personally fulfilled and making a contribution to others. The most dangerous thing that you can do at this point is make assumptions about what you will or will not be able to do in the future. You are probably not familiar enough with the implications of visual impairment to fully know what to expect. Please seek the support and guidance of persons who are knowledgeable. People who have experienced vision loss, as well as professionals trained to assist persons with visual impairments, can be of tremendous help to you in this transition phase. Before you make any major life decisions such as quitting a job, selling a house, moving in with adult children or others, abandoning hobbies or friends, please contact an agency providing services specifically for visually impaired individuals. Ask them about adjustment counseling, support groups and peer counseling. You will find a list of California Agencies in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. HOW TO USE THIS HANDBOOK Think of this Handbook as a guidebook, describing major points of interest and telling you how to access them. It is not intended to replace in-depth information about any particular program or service, but rather to let you know what is available. Once you find the programs and services that suit your needs, you can do further research about eligibility requirements, fees and other important information. Since most people who lose vision are more than 50 years of age, this Handbook is directed to the older population. These individuals are not usually connected to the social service system, and thus, are not familiar with available resources. Families of visually impaired children should contact the Special Education coordinator in their local school districts for information and assistance. The final section of this Handbook is a Directory of Resources which will be referenced throughout. In this section, you will find contact information for numerous agencies/organizations and a brief synopsis of their services. Use this Handbook as a reference library. You dont need to read and try to absorb all of it at one time. Look through it and study those sections that seem to respond to your immediate concerns. Remember to contact us at the Office of Services to the Blind if you have any questions or need further information. Our contact information is: California Department of Social Services Office of Services to the Blind 744 P Street, MS 8-16-94 Sacramento, CA 95814 (916) 657-3327 (916) 653-7651 (TTY) (916) 653-4001 (Fax) You may also e-mail us at:  HYPERLINK "mailto:BlindAccess@dss.ca.gov.%20" BlindAccess@dss.ca.gov.  FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Question: What is the relationship between age and vision loss? Answer: Many of the conditions which cause vision loss are associated with aging such as Macular Degeneration, Cataracts, Diabetic Retinopathy and Glaucoma. Question: Does the term blind only refer to persons who are totally blind or have no useful vision? Answer: The term blind technically includes persons whose visual acuity ranges from legal blindness to total blindness. However, the term visually impaired is increasingly used to indicate persons with visual impairment ranging from slight to severe. Only about ten percent of the visually impaired population is totally blind. The rest have some useful vision. Question: What does legally blind mean? Answer: Legal blindness is the degree of vision loss established in state and federal law as the basis of eligibility for governmental services such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Medi-Cal, and rehabilitation services. Legal blindness is about ten percent of normal visual acuity or 20/200 or a visual field limited to 20 degrees. Question: What are the most common causes of vision loss? Answer: They are Cataracts, Macular Degeneration, Diabetic Retinopathy, Glaucoma and Retinitis Pigmentosa. Information about these conditions can be obtained from their respective associations. Question: Do most blind people use Braille? Answer: No. Only about eight percent of blind individuals learn to read Braille. About half of visually impaired persons are over 65 years of age and they tend not to learn Braille. Question: Are most blind persons of working age employed? What kinds of jobs do they do? Answer: Approximately 30 percent of blind and visually impaired persons of working age are employed. Blind persons still face a great deal of employer resistance. Employers fear they will not be able to produce competitively with sighted employees. Those who are employed work in a wide range of fields. There are visually impaired teachers, professors, lawyers, machinists, auto mechanics, aviation mechanics, customer service representatives, public administrators, social workers, psychologists, engineers, medical transcriptionists, court reporters, county, state, and federal workers, stock brokers, insurance agents, travel agents, real estate agents, salespersons, entrepreneurs, factory workers, etc. Question: Have technological advances had an impact on blind people? Answer: The development of synthesized speech and the widespread availability of inexpensive speech chips have opened a world of opportunities for visually impaired persons. The major handicap of blindness, the lack of immediate personal access to printed information, has been effectively neutralized by the advent of personal computers which can output information in speech, Large Print or Braille. The use of scanners which convert printed documents into computer files give blind persons access to printed materials in minutes rather than the weeks formerly required to have them recorded on tape or transcribed into Braille. Speech chips have rendered virtually all appliances useable by blind persons. There are talking clocks, calculators, gauges, scales, microwave ovens, remote control devices as well as many kinds of tools with audible output. Question: What kind of recreational activities do blind people participate in? Answer: Blind persons engage in a wide variety of sports and recreational pursuits. Blind cross-country skiers ski with a sighted guide who skis beside or behind them and gives verbal clues about the environment. Blind golfers golf with a sighted partner who helps them keep track of their ball. Blind bowlers sometimes use a guide rail to keep their approach straight. Blind cyclists ride on tandem bicycles with a sighted captain riding on the front. Blind runners sometimes run touching hands with a partner or just with verbal directions from a fellow runner. There are blind swimmers, water skiers, wind surfers, horse trainers and horse racers. For the less ambitious, there are Large Print and Braille playing cards, tactile board games, puzzles, chess, checkers and many other games. SERVICES FOR PERSONS WHO ARE BLIND OR VISUALLY IMPAIRED In California, there is no centralized Bureau or Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Many different public and private agencies offer services directed to the various needs of the visually impaired population. It is sometimes difficult to know what services the various agencies provide and how they can be contacted. The following brief descriptions are designed to give you an initial understanding of how the system works and how to access the services you need. Several state and county departments provide educational, employment, financial, and health and welfare services. However, many very important services are provided by individual private non-profit agencies located throughout the state. These services include, but are not limited to, adjustment to blindness counseling, peer counseling, support groups, mobility training, training in independent living, low vision services and various educational and recreational activities. Since these private agencies are independent of each other, there is no uniformity throughout the state in what programs are available. You will need to check with the agency nearest you to find out what programs and services it offers. A list of California Agencies is included in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. The following is an overview of the available services and how they are accessed. ADJUSTMENT COUNSELING AND SUPPORT GROUPS Adjustment to vision loss can be a slow and painful process. The length and difficulty will vary with each individual and will include several stages. Losing sight, even a mild loss, is much like other losses. It usually requires a grieving process including denial, anger, depression, and finally, coping. Experiencing these phases is normal. However, the process should not be allowed to go on too long. The sooner you take steps to accept and cope with your vision loss, the sooner you can resume your normal activities and maintain control over your life. If you are having any trouble moving through and beyond these stages of loss, please reach out for help. The adjustment process can be made easier and shorter with help from caring professionals and from others who have gone through the same process. Support groups are a wonderful source of inspiration. While providing strong emotional support, they also supply a great deal of useful information about resources available in the community and about coping strategies that have worked for others. Some support groups are focused on a specific condition such as Diabetes or Macular Degeneration. Others are for anyone experiencing sight loss. Some groups include spouses or significant others while others are only for the individual. Whatever the design or make-up of the group, it is almost inevitable that good positive results happen from people coming together and sharing feelings and encouragement. Individual counseling is also available both from trained professionals and from peers. Larger agencies, such as the Braille Institute in Los Angeles, the Rose Resnick Lighthouse in San Francisco and the Society for the Blind in Sacramento, as w Page ell as many of the smaller agencies, provide a variety of counseling and support options. Check with the agencies closest to you. See the listing of California Agencies in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. INDEPENDENT LIVING Perhaps the most important services the newly visually impaired individual needs are those directed to developing the skills of independent living. The importance of being able to take care of oneself cannot be overemphasized. Visually impaired people, including totally blind people, can and do perform the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) independently and competently. Even if you live in the home of another or in a group living situation, it is essential that you learn to take care of these functions yourself. ADL include grooming and hygiene, meal preparation and clean-up, wardrobe and household management, handling of personal finances including paying bills, communication and medication management. Learning these skills may be challenging for persons with limited vision, but mastering them is central to the maintenance of self-esteem and self-direction. One of the major challenges you will face, as a newly visually impaired person is to maintain control over the decisions affecting your life such as where you will live. The more independent you are the more freedom you are likely to maintain. Family members may rush to your side to help and protect you. They are well intentioned and acting from their love and concern. However, if their efforts to assist you prevent or discourage you from pursuing the rigorous process of learning to be independent, neither you nor they will be satisfied with the results. You will not want to be treated like a child who cannot take care of himself/herself or make adult decisions. Others may tire of the responsibility of meeting your basic needs. If both you and they adjust to your vision loss and you maintain your independence, all of your relationships will remain healthier and more satisfying. Learning independent skills is simply a matter of mastering alternative techniques for doing each task. Competent teachers can show you many ways to accomplish all of the ADL. There is ADL training available both from the Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) and from many private agencies for the blind. The DOR has two kinds of programs designed to provide ADL training. The Counselor/Teacher (C/T) program provides services at or near the clients home and the Orientation Center for the Blind (OCB) is a residential rehabilitation center dedicated to independent living for people with severe vision impairments. The C/T program provides a variety of services which include daily living skills, home management, orientation and mobility, communication skills, business methods, counseling (personal and/or vocational) and special services, if needed. The C/T program can also purchase assistive devices that help a person function independently. The focus at the OCB is on the acquisition of new skills such as adjustments to new vision disabilities, adaptive skills, and immersion in an atmosphere that is respectful and knowledgeable about the abilities of blind and visually impaired people. Participants live in dormitories for seven to nine months while attending daily classes that encompass all phases of independent living. This is an intense program designed to teach the person how to cope with sight loss and it has proven to be very effective in creating self-reliance and reducing dependence on family and friends. The decision to apply to the OCB occurs between a consumer and his or her Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor. To apply for the C/T program or admission to the OCB, contact the DOR District Office nearest you. A list of these offices is included in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. Other sources of Independent Living Skills training are the private non-profit agencies serving the blind and visually impaired mentioned in the Adjustment Counseling and Support Groups section of this chapter. The larger agencies provide individualized ADL training in the homes of clients. Many also have classes at their agencies. Contact the agency nearest your residence to inquire about these services. To find a local agency, refer to the listing of California Agencies in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. LOW VISION SERVICES Many people dont realize that Low Vision Services are a specialty unto themselves. Low Vision Services are very important as they help individuals strengthen and make maximum use of residual vision. These services consist of a low vision evaluation, identification of appropriate low vision aids, training for the user, and follow-up appointments. Qualified professionals must do low vision evaluations. A simple check of visual acuity is not a low vision evaluation. Low Vision Specialists are trained to analyze the individual idiosyncrasies of each persons vision and to select magnifying lenses and lighting devices that best complement that vision. The specialist will train the client on the use of low vision aids. Many Low Vision Clinics will let clients take devices home on a trial basis. To find a local provider, refer to the listing Low Vision Services in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. EMPLOYMENT In California, the DOR is responsible for providing employment services to persons with disabilities. These services include counseling about career or job selection, resume preparation, job search skills training, peer group support and the provision of various kinds of pre-vocational and vocational training. The DOR can pay for pre-vocational training, college or university, books, training materials and equipment needed for employment, such as uniforms, tools, computers, etc. The DOR has branches throughout the state. To inquire about eligibility requirements and the application process for obtaining rehabilitation services, call the County Office nearest you and ask for the Rehabilitation Counselor for the Blind (RCB). Refer to the listing California Department of Rehabilitation in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. Any branch that has a B designated on the listing has a RCB at that office. READING SERVICES Those of us who lose part or all of our ability to read realize what a monumental inconvenience this can be. From the daily newspaper, to our favorite books and magazines, to instructions on prescription medicines and labels on cans and packages in the kitchen, the need to get information from the printed word is constant and crucial. There are several methods available to people who cannot read standard print to obtain most or all of these kinds of information. Some alternatives to standard print are Large Print, Braille, recorded material, and computer-produced synthesized speech. For a listing of radio reading services in California, refer to Radio Reading Services in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. For reading your mail, newsletters, magazines and items of personal business, you will probably need a volunteer or paid reader. Many agencies serving the blind and visually impaired offer volunteer reader programs. For a listing of these agencies, refer to California Agencies in the Directory of Resources section in this Handbook. LARGE PRINT For people who need larger than standard size print, there are many options. Books, magazines, dictionaries, thesaurus, cookbooks, new periodicals, games and many other useful materials are all published in Large Print. For a listing of the organizations that provide these services, refer to Large Print Books in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. NEWSPAPERS Newspapers are available in three principal ways: Radio Reading Services, telephone access and the internet. Radio Reading Services are available in many communities throughout the country. They consist of broadcasts transmitted over special closed circuit radio or T.V. channels. Volunteers read local newspapers, publications and a wide variety of local and current information that is relevant to their communities. Listeners need a special receiver which they obtain from the service provider. For a list of these service providers, see Vendors of Assistive Technology in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. Telephone access to newspapers in California utilizes synthesized speech to deliver an audio version of newspaper text to those who are blind or visually impaired. Newspapers are transmitted electronically to a central receiving station. Readers can telephone into this station at their convenience and have the option of several newspapers, which are read electronically via synthesized speech. The reader can select articles, skip material, browse and reread articles all through the use of the telephone touch tone keypad. The largest source for Radio Reading Services in the country is the National Library Service (NLS) for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. In California, the NLS service is accessed through a network of four regional libraries. The website address for these libraries is  HYPERLINK "http://www.library.ca.gov/services/btbl.html" www.library.ca.gov/services/btbl.html and their phone numbers are listed below.

For more information about Large Print and a comprehensive list of publishers, see Large Print Books and Newsletters, Magazines and Journals" in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. RECREATIONAL MATERIALS AND HOUSEHOLD COMMODITIES Many games are available in Large Print including playing cards, board games and crossword puzzle books. If you live near a service agency serving individuals with visual impairments, you will most likely find them at their store. If not, there are catalogs through which these can be ordered. For a listing of these catalogs, refer to Catalogs of Merchandise in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. Many household appliances have been adapted with large print or markings. These include alarm clocks, kitchen timers, thermometers, scales, yardsticks, rulers, and other measuring devices. Large Print overlays for telephone dials can be extremely useful. These household items may be available in the agency stores mentioned above. For vendor listings of household commodities, refer to Catalogs of Merchandise in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. LABELING PRODUCTS People use many different methods of marking food and household items. One of the simplest is to add your own label, on which you or someone else has written the important information, with a bold marker pen in large letters. MEDICINES Ask the pharmacist to either type in Large Print or hand write in Large Print with a bold pen the instructions for each bottle or package of medications. Do not hesitate to let your doctor or pharmacist know that you need this service. They will do it. You only need to ask. EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS The largest producers of educational materials are the American Printing House (APH) for the Blind and Recordings for the Blind and Dyslexic (RFB&D). The APH produces material for school age students. For information on available publications, refer to Catalogs of Merchandise in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. The RFB&D produces educational materials for students and non-students alike. If you need a training manual, cookbook, instructional material or any other educational item, RFB&D will record it for you. For information on available publications, see Producers of Audio Books and Periodicals in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. The California Department of Educations Clearinghouse for Specialized Media and Translations (CSMT) provides instructional resources in accessible and meaningful formats to K-12 students with disabilities. Educational material adopted by the State Board of Education is produced in a variety of formats such as: Braille, Large Print, audio recordings and Digital Talking Books. The CSMT is a supplier of APH products, as well as, the administrator for the APH Federal Quota Program for California students. This program allocates federal quota money for the purchase of APH products, based on the annual census of eligible students in California. For contact information for the CSMT, refer to Large Print Books and Audio Books and Periodicals in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. BRAILLE Since its invention, in the mid-nineteenth century, by blind Frenchman Louis Braille, the Braille code has been used by millions of blind and visually impaired persons around the world, in dozens of countries and in many languages, to achieve literacy and to gain access to a world of knowledge and information. Braille is a systematic code of cells of six raised dots which can be used in hundreds of configurations to represent letters, numbers, punctuation marks and common letter groupings. The Braille code is adaptable to various kinds of notation such as math, music and computer language. Not all blind people read Braille proficiently. In fact, most Braille users are fairly slow readers and many visually impaired people never learn it at all. This is an extremely unfortunate fact because Braille is an invaluable tool for persons who cannot read print. The slow reader will not want to use Braille for reading lengthy materials such as books, newspapers and magazines. These items are available in other media. However, any individual who cannot read print must have a note taking system for communicating with himself/ herself. For example, think of the ever increasing volume of numbers in our lives that we must produce upon request such as credit card numbers, account numbers, social security, drivers license or state ID numbers, health plan numbers, loan numbers, etc. Imagine having to memorize all of these numbers and not having access to them without assistance. Another vital use of Braille is for making lists of names, addresses and phone numbers. We all use the telephone dozens of times a day. With a Braille Rolodex, a visually impaired person can make all of his or her calls without having to wait until someone else is available to read the numbers. Recipes, to do lists, appointment schedules and instructions of all kinds can be stored easily in Braille. Learning Braille has two components: sensitizing the fingertips so that they can feel the dots and memorizing the different dot configurations. A grading system in Braille is used to categorize these dot configurations. Grade 1 consists of the alphabet and the basic punctuation marks. This Grade is taught to people new to the use of Braille. Grade 2 includes short forms of words and contractions which represent syllables. Grade 3 is very similar to shorthand. Grade 1 is relatively quick and easy to master by anyone who is motivated. Many persons go well beyond Grade 1. Even when beginning in their sixties and seventies, many people master Grade 2. There are several sources of Braille instruction. Most private agencies for the blind and visually impaired offer Braille lessons which are usually taught individually by a Braille instructor. The DOR offers Braille instruction through its C/T program mentioned earlier in this section. Most Counselor/Teachers give Braille lessons in the clients home as a part of a rehabilitation program. The Hadley School for the Blind is also an excellent source for Braille instruction. This is a correspondence school for persons who are blind and visually impaired. All lessons are mailed to the students home and study is done at the students own pace. Their contact information is: Hadley School for the Blind 700 Elm Street Winnetka, IL 60093-2554 (847) 446-8111 or (800) 323-4238 (847) 441-8111 (TTY) Website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.hadley-school.edu" www.hadley-school.edu E-mail:  HYPERLINK "mailto:info@hadley.edu" info@hadley.edu Finally, there are Braille instruction books designed for a person to study and learn independently. However, most people find that it is easier to learn Braille by either using a personal instructor or by following a structured curriculum such as the one produced by the Hadley School for the Blind. A good source of books and magazines in Braille is the NLS through its regional libraries. This was previously mentioned in the Magazines and Books section of this chapter. There are also many other sources of Braille materials including religious books and pamphlets, computer manuals, cookbooks and how to books, etc. For a list of publishers of Braille materials see Large Print Books and Producers of Audio Books and Periodicals in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. OTHER SOCIAL AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES SENIOR SERVICE SYSTEM In addition to services designed for blind and visually impaired persons, there are other social service programs available. There is an extensive service system for seniors that is administered by the California Department of Aging (CDA). The CDA serves as both a unifying force for services to seniors and adults with disabilities and as a focal point for federal, state and local agencies which serve the elderly and adults with disabilities in California. The contact information for the CDA is: California Department of Aging 1300 National Drive, Suite 200 Sacramento, CA 95834-1992 (916) 419-7500 (800) 735-2929 (STET) Website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.aging.ca.gov" www.aging.ca.gov The CDA contracts with the network of Area Agencies on Aging (AAA), which directly manages a wide array of federal and state-funded services that help older adults. Each county has an AAA that is staffed by professionals who are knowledgeable about services available in your community. These services include, but are not limited to, transportation services, meal services, adult day care, housing assistance, medication management assistance and information and referral services. A wide range of recreational and educational activities are also provided at Senior Centers. Program availability varies between AAAs. For more information about services in your area and their availability, call your local Information and Assistance Program toll free at (800) 510-2020. County specific telephone numbers may be accessed at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.aging.ca.gov/local_aaa/AAA_listing.asp" www.aging.ca.gov/local_aaa/AAA_listing.asp For information about senior related services available outside of California, call the toll free Elder Care Locator at (800) 677-1116 or visit the following website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.eldercare.gov.net" http://www.eldercare.gov.net IN-HOME SUPPORTIVE SERVICES For persons who cannot live independently in their own homes without some assistance, there is a program known as In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS). The IHSS program will help pay for assistance services, thus allowing a person to remain safely in their own home. If eligible, an IHSS Social Worker goes to a clients home and assesses the need for service. The types of service provided by IHSS include: house cleaning, grocery shopping, meal preparation, laundry, personal care services, assistance with medical appointments and other chores necessary to maintain a safe and healthy home environment. To learn more about the IHSS program and to find out whether you are eligible for services, contact your local County Welfare or Social Services office. A complete listing of these offices may be found at the following website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/medi-cal/Pages/CountyOffices.aspx" www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/medi-cal/Pages/CountyOffices.aspx. THE CALIFORNIA IDENTIFICATION CARD For persons who do not qualify for a drivers license, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) issues the California Identification (ID) Card. This is a picture identification card that looks very much like a drivers license but is used for identification purposes only. A regular ID card is valid for six years and a senior citizen ID card is valid for ten years. To qualify for a senior citizen ID card, you must be 62 or older. You may pay a reduced application fee for an original or renewal identification card if you meet income requirements from a public assistance program. If you are eligible, the governmental or non-profit program will give you a completed Verification for Reduced Fee Identification Card (Form DL 937) to take to DMV to apply for your reduced fee identification card. You can obtain a California ID Card from any DMV branch office. While an appointment is not necessary, it is preferable to make an appointment to avoid a long wait by calling (800) 777-0133. You will need your birth certificate and social security number to apply for a California ID Card. TRANSPORTATION When driving a motor vehicle is no longer an option, getting from place to place becomes quite challenging. One of the most daunting tasks for a person may be to find reliable transportation in order to maintain the daily necessities of life such as going to the market, the doctor, etc. Unfortunately, for Californians who do not drive automobiles, finding dependable transportation continues to be one of the biggest challenges. Throughout the state, there is a system of regional transit systems. Some of them are single county entities, some are jointly operated by multiple counties. In the 58 counties in the state, there are about 80 of these systems that form the foundation of the public transportation system. In your area, the public Transit Agency may contract with private companies to provide such specialized transportation directly. Contract agencies frequently use names such as Dial-a-Ride or Paratransit. The quality and responsiveness of these services, as well as eligibility requirements and fees, vary from community to community. You will need to contact your local transportation authority to learn more about the transportation options available to you. For a listing of all transit agencies with the local links listed by county and city, refer to the website below which is provided by the American Public Transportation Association (APTA):  HYPERLINK "http://www.apta.com/resources/links/unitedstates/Pages/CaliforniaTransitLinks.aspx" www.apta.com/resources/links/unitedstates/Pages/CaliforniaTransitLinks.aspx. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS SOCIAL SECURITY Eligibility for Social Security is authorized by Title II of the Social Security Act. The official name is Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI). The amount of monthly income you may obtain from Social Security is determined by how much you have contributed to Social Security. It is not based on your financial need. In other words, if you have worked for a certain number of quarters and paid into the Social Security fund, you will be able to collect payments based on your contributions. The Social Security Administration (SSA) has a toll-free number that operates from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Please have your social security number handy when you call. The contact information for SSA is: (800) 772-1213 (Voice) (800) 325-0778 (TTY) Website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.ssa.gov" www.ssa.gov There is a SSA website for frequently asked questions which is located at:  HYPERLINK "http://ssa-custhelp.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/ssa.cfg/php/enduser/std_alp.php?p_sid=XJ9HspWiIf" ssa-custhelp.ssa.gov/  If you still need additional help, you may write to the Office of Public Inquiries: Social Security Administration Office of Public Inquiries Windsor Park Building 6401 Security Boulevard Baltimore, MD 21235 Contact the Social Security office nearest your residence to get more information about the various Social Security programs. To locate the office nearest your residence, you can access the online Social Security Office Locator at:  HYPERLINK "https://secure.ssa.gov/apps6z/FOLO/fo001.jsp" https://secure.ssa.gov/apps6z/FOLO/fo001.jsp. SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY INSURANCE Eligibility for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) is also based on your earnings, those of your spouse or your parents. If you have worked for a certain length of time and become visually impaired, you may be eligible for SSDI. The SSA provides several pamphlets and brochures about its programs. You may want to contact the Social Security office nearest you to request these materials. A general overview of SSDI, as well as Supplemental Security Income (SSI), can be found at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.socialsecurity.gov/redbook/index.html" www.socialsecurity.gov/redbook/index.html. SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME Eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) authorized by Title XVI of the Social Security Act, is based on financial need. The SSI program makes cash assistance payments to aged, blind, and disabled individuals (including children under age 18) who have limited income and resources. The amount that you may receive will depend on your income and resources. You may apply in person or over the telephone. A Social Security representative will complete the application for you and mail it to you for your signature. You should inquire at the Social Security office nearest you. Telephone numbers for Social Security offices are listed under United States Government, Department of Health and Human Services, in your telephone directory. A general overview of SSI qualifications can be found at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.socialsecurity.gov/redbook/index.html" www.socialsecurity.gov/redbook/index.html. SSI and SSDI programs share many similar concepts and terms, but there are also several, very important differences in the rules affecting eligibility and benefit payments. Individuals may apply to both programs and some people are eligible for benefits under both SSI and SSDI. The term concurrent is used when individuals are eligible for benefits under both programs. Examples of concurrent benefits can be found at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.socialsecurity.gov/redbook/eng/supportsexample.htm" www.socialsecurity.gov/redbook/eng/supportsexample.htm. TAX BENEFITS People who are legally blind are eligible for a special deduction on their income taxes in addition to the standard deductions they may be entitled to. You will need a statement from your doctor affirming your visual impairment and it must be attached to your tax return. The amount of these fixed deductions depends on your filing status and the amount may vary from year to year. You may also be entitled to additional deductions based on your visual impairment. To view possible deductions, consult the Internal Revenue Services Tax Highlights for Persons with Disabilities (Publication 907) at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p907.pdf" www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p907.pdf. FREE POSTAGE The U.S. Postal Service allows visually impaired persons to send and receive books, recorded material, certain types of equipment and other mail free-of-charge if they are registered at the local post office. In the right top corner of the envelope, you will need to place the words FREE MATTER FOR THE BLIND OR HANDICAPPED. You may send for a copy of the pamphlet, Mailing Free Matter for Blind and Visually Handicapped Persons from the Office of the Consumer Advocate. The contact information for this office is: Consumer Advocate United States Postal Service 475 LEnfant Plz Sw, Rm 4012 Washington, DC 20260-2200 Customer Service: (800) ASK-USPS or (800) 275-8777 The publication may also be downloaded at the following website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.usps.com/2bout.usps.com/publications/pub347.pdf" www.usps.com/2bout.usps.com/publications/pub347.pdf DISABLED PARKING PLACARD The DMV will issue a disabled parking placard to a visually impaired person. This placard is transferable from vehicle to vehicle whenever the person with sight loss is a passenger. It is usable in specially marked disabled parking spaces and will enable the driver to park free at parking meters. Permanent parking placards for permanent disabilities are valid for two years and there is a substantial penalty for misuse. There is no fee for a permanent parking placard, its replacement, or for a travel placard. Additional information about placards for disabled persons may be found at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/brochures/fast_facts/ffvr07.htm" www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/brochures/fast_facts/ffvr07.htm You may obtain a copy of the Application for Disabled Person Placard or Plates (Form REG 195) at the following website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg195.htm" www.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg195.htm.

REDUCED BUS AND RAIL FARES Most national rail and bus companies offer discount fares to persons with disabilities and their travel companions. Almost always, proof of vision loss and a picture ID card are required. Photo IDs can be obtained from DMV. Many local Transit Agencies offer their own reduced fare card for disabled persons. For a listing of all Transit Agencies with the local links listed by county and city, refer to the website below which is provided by the American Public Transportation Association (APTA):  HYPERLINK "http://www.apta.com/resources/links/unitedstates/Pages/CaliforniaTransitLinks.aspx" www.apta.com/resources/links/unitedstates/Pages/CaliforniaTransitLinks.aspx. DISCOUNTS AT STATE PARKS AND OTHER RECREATIONAL FACILITIES California State Parks offer a Disabled Discount Pass. For a small fee, a lifetime pass is issued to applicants who are eligible. The pass entitles you to a 50 percent discount on basic facility use fees including day parking, camping and boat/day parking. The pass may be used at all parks and recreation sites operated by the State of California except Hearst Castle at San Simeon.

Many local tourist attractions such as museums, amusement parks and reserves also offer discounts to persons with disabilities. Always remember to ask if the attraction you are visiting has a special rate for persons with disabilities. ASSISTANCE DOG SPECIAL ALLOWANCE PROGRAM The Assistance Dog Special Allowance (ADSA) program provides a monthly payment to eligible persons who use a guide, signal or service dog to help them with needs related to their physical disabilities. The allowance is to help pay the cost of food, grooming and health care for the dog. To be eligible for the ADSA program, an individual must meet all four of the following criteria: Live in California. Be blind, deaf, hard of hearing or disabled. Use the services of a guide, signal or service dog. Receive benefits from one or more of the following programs: Supplemental Security Income (SSI) State Supplementary Payment (SSP) In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) (SSDI recipients must also meet federal poverty guidelines) Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants (CAPI) Should you need to obtain an application or have additional questions, the contact information for the ADSA program is: California Department of Social Services Office of Services to the Blind 744 P Street, MS 8-16-94 Sacramento, CA 95814 (916) 657-2628 (916) 651-6248 (TTY) Website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.dss.cahwnet.gov/CDSSWEB/PG82.htm" www.dss.cahwnet.gov/CDSSWEB/PG82.htm E-mail:  HYPERLINK "mailto:ADSAUser@dss.ca.gov" ADSAUser@dss.ca.gov MEDICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICES Many California residents who are blind or visually impaired may be eligible for two public Medical Assistance programs. One is Medi-Cal, which is Californias name for the federal Medicaid program. The other is Medicare, a federal program designed to help with the cost of medical and hospital care for elderly and disabled persons. MEDI-CAL Medi-Cal is a state and federally funded program for low-income people, which pays for medically necessary treatment services, medicines, medical supplies and durable medical equipment, such as canes, crutches, walkers and wheelchairs. You are automatically eligible for Medi-Cal if you are receiving SSI or IHSS. However, even if you do not receive benefits from these programs, you may still be eligible if you have low income and limited resources. Medi-Cal provides a number of services to people with limited resources including, but not limited to: Physician services Inpatient hospital care Outpatient hospital care Laboratory and X-ray services Skilled nursing facility services Home health services Rural health clinic services Pharmacy services (Medications) Medical transportation Equipment such as wheelchairs and hearing aids Vision services Long term care Physical therapy Occupational therapy Speech therapy Audiology The Medi-Cal program is administered by each county in California. To learn more about the Medi-Cal program and to find out if you are eligible for these services, contact your local County Welfare or Social Services office. The Directory of Resources section entitled, County Social Services Offices of this Handbook has a complete listing of County Welfare or Social Services offices. A listing of these offices may also be found at the following website:  HYPERLINK "http://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/medi-cal/Pages/CountyOffices.aspx" www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/medi-cal/Pages/CountyOffices.aspx. MEDICARE Medicare is a federal health insurance program for aged and disabled persons. Unlike Medi-Cal, entitlement to Medicare services is not based on an individuals financial status. Rather, it is a health insurance program funded through employer and employee payroll taxes. To qualify for Medicare, an individual must be: Receiving Social Security benefits; A retired employee of the federal government; or Receiving Railroad Retirement benefits. For people who are not disabled, eligibility for Medicare begins at age 65, even if they opted to begin receiving Social Security Retirement benefits at age 62. Persons under the age of 65 who are disabled may be eligible for Medicare if they have received Social Security or Railroad Retirement Disability benefits for at least 24 months. The disabled adult child of a Medicare recipient, or deceased Medicare recipient, is also eligible to receive Medicare benefits. Medicare Administration The Medicare program is administered locally by private insurance companies who are called carriers. The Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), a federal agency within the Health and Human Services Department, contracts with private insurance companies in each area of the country to process claims for benefits from people who are enrolled in Medicare. However, you apply for Medicare at your local Social Security office and questions concerning benefits should be directed there as well. The Official U.S. Government site for people with Medicare can be found at:  HYPERLINK "http://www.medicare.gov/" www.medicare.gov/. If you have questions about Medicare or want to apply for benefits, call Social Security at the numbers listed below and make sure to have your social security number ready when you call. (800) 772-1213 (800) 325-0778 (TTY) To locate the office nearest your residence, you can access the online Social Security Office Locator at:  HYPERLINK "https://secure.ssa.gov/apps6z/FOLO/fo001.jsp" https://secure.ssa.gov/apps6z/FOLO/fo001.jsp. For general Medicare information, ordering Medicare booklets, and information about health plans, Medicare may be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at: (800) MEDICARE or (800) 633-4227 (877) 486-2048 (TTY) Medicare Benefit Structure Medicare benefits are divided into Parts A and B. Medicare Part A covers hospital care, nursing home and home health care services. Medicare Part B covers outpatient hospital care, physician services, physical therapy, medical transportation, durable medical equipment (wheelchairs, walkers, etc.) and other services and procedures. Medicare Part A Medicare Part A covers institutional, or hospital, and similar types of care. It is free for those who have contributed to Social Security. For those who have not contributed, Part A can be purchased by persons over 65. Medicare Part B Medicare Part B services include: Physicians services Outpatient hospital services Rural health clinic care Outpatient Rehabilitation Physical and Occupational Therapy Speech Pathology Prosthetic devices Durable medical equipment Diagnostic tests Certain preventive services There is an initial deductible per year for Part B services. This amount is satisfied only by the recipient paying charges that Medicare would allow, which may be less than the full amount of the bill. In addition, recipients are responsible for paying a 20 percent co-payment for most services and devices provided under Part B. Under certain circumstances, physicians and other providers are allowed to charge more than Medicare will pay. You, the beneficiary, are required to pay for these extra charges. Although physicians and suppliers may charge more than Medicare allows, some have agreed to provide services and equipment on an assignment basis. This means they will accept the amount that Medicare allows for a service or device as payment in full without making any additional charge. Medicare pays 80 percent of this allowed amount and you, the beneficiary, must pay the remaining 20 percent. If a supplier has not agreed to assignment, the full market price may be charged. The beneficiary is expected to pay any amount which exceeds what Medicare allows. NON-GOVERNMENT MEDICAL SERVICES This section discusses several non-government programs that, in addition to the government programs Medi-Cal and Medicare, assist with the cost of medical treatment related to blindness prevention and vision preservation. EYECARE AMERICA EyeCare America is a public service program that facilitates eye care to U.S. citizens and legal residents aged 65 and over who do not have an ophthalmologist at no cost to those who qualify.

ORIENTATION AND MOBILITY Orientation and Mobility are the terms that refer to the techniques used by visually impaired persons so that they may travel safely and efficiently. In this context, travel means moving around inside ones home or outside within the community. It includes walking with or without a mobility aid, such as a white cane or guide dog, and using all modes of transportation, such as buses, trains, taxies and airplanes. Orientation refers to the relationship between a person and the physical space that surrounds him/her. It includes conceptualizing spatial relationships, such as right angles for negotiating intersections and understanding the layout in ones own home or office so that a person can confidently and efficiently function in these environments. Mobility refers to techniques used to move safely through the environment while getting from Point A to Point B. For visually impaired persons, mobility can be a particular challenge when attempting to move about safely in an environment full of obstacles and pitfalls. Yet mobility is essential to personal and professional progress, productivity, independence and self-esteem. Any person, regardless of the degree of vision loss, can be taught to move around safely in his/her home, on the job, and in the community. State certified Orientation and Mobility Specialists teach the techniques necessary to achieve independent mobility, both to low vision and to totally blind clients. Such techniques include the safe and efficient use of residual vision as well as the use of mobility aids. The most common mobility aid is the white cane, followed by the guide dog. However, rapidly developing technology is bringing new mobility aids to the market constantly. THE WHITE CANE The white cane is used by many visually impaired Californians to achieve independent mobility in their homes and communities, but how well do most people understand its functions? What images come to mind for most people when they think of a white cane? For many, the white cane has negative connotations. It brings to mind images of helpless and pitiable persons groping along the street. Even many blind and visually impaired persons subscribe to these images and refuse to carry the white cane so others will not know they are blind. It is unfortunate that the white cane conjures up such misconceptions because, in actual fact, it is the tool which contributes much to the independence and mobility of blind persons. It has liberated millions of blind people worldwide from restricted lives of dependence and passivity. For these blind individuals, the white cane is more of a symbol of accomplishment and freedom. The white cane does much more than move along the sidewalk alerting the blind pedestrian to obstacles in the path. First, it grants a blind pedestrian protections and the right-of-way while carrying the cane. The white cane also provides a great deal of invaluable information about the surroundings. For example, the tapping sound echoes off the fronts of buildings as the cane user walks down the street. The sound changes as he or she passes openings such as doorways, driveways and alleys. In large places, such as train station lobbies or airports, the echo lets the user know the size of the space and the locations of hallways and stairwells. The tip of the cane is very sensitive, providing crucial information about ground surfaces. For example, the cane indicates when the concrete of the sidewalk changes into the asphalt of the street. This information is especially important in places where there are no curbs. Other surface changes can denote entrances to buildings, bus stops, and the front of the blind persons home or other destinations. In interior spaces, floor coverings are very informational. For example, in many hotel lobbies, department stores, and governmental buildings, tile or marble indicates walk ways, and carpeting indicates seating or merchandise areas or vice versa. The cane picks up all these changes and many more, not to mention drop-offs like stairs or the edge of a platform in a train or subway station. When properly used, the white cane can give a blind person much needed information to move about safely through most environments. In summary, the white cane enables blind people to travel safely and independently all over the world and to engage in the full gamut of vocational and leisure activities. THE GUIDE DOG The decision whether to use a cane or a dog can be a major one, which should not be made lightly. The relationship that can develop between humans and dogs can be of the most loving and powerful nature. The assistance that guide dogs provide can be tremendously useful, making a significant contribution to independent mobility. However, there are many factors to consider before making this choice. Factors to Consider Before Choosing a Guide Dog Dog training schools require visually impaired applicants to be good travelers. Thus, they must have already had training in Orientation and Mobility and have good travel skills. A guide dog does not actually take people to their destination. The human partner must know how to get where he or she wants to go and give appropriate commands to the dog. Dogs like to walk rapidly. Their human companions must be in good physical condition and be able to maintain a brisk pace. Dogs are deeply caring and devoted. Their emotional well being depends on the love and attention of their human companions. The relationship that develops between a guide dog and a visually impaired person is usually very strong. This sometimes creates jealousy on the part of other family members. Likewise, guide dogs expect to accompany their partners everywhere and become unhappy if left behind when their partners go out with other family members or friends. Dogs are a big responsibility. They need to be relieved every several hours no matter how inconvenient this may be for their human partners. The human partner is expected to pick up after the dog and to repair or pay for any damage the dog may cause. Dogs must be groomed and bathed regularly. Dogs are an added expense. Their food and grooming bills can be considerable, and while some training schools provide free veterinarian care, not all do. Also, it may not be geographically feasible to use their services. Dogs can be social icebreakers. Most people love dogs and want to comment on how attractive and wonderful they are. However, it can be disconcerting to discover that the sighted public thinks that the humans are totally dependent on their dogs and that the dogs are taking care of them. Tact and diplomacy are often required in interacting with the public. Think about these issues and how you might deal with them. A very good way to learn more about the experience of having and using a guide dog is to talk with people who do use them. You can get information on dog training schools by contacting the Assistance Dog Special Allowance Program listed in the Financial Assistance Programs section of this Handbook. NEW MOBILITY AIDS Some of the more promising new mobility aids are: Talking Signs that transmit information to hand-held receivers which announce the location of important features such as public telephones, restrooms, street addresses, traffic signals, etc.; portable geographical positioning systems (GPS) which let users know precisely where they are; computerized city maps which provide users with information on how to get to their destinations; and canes that beep and/or vibrate to indicate objects not only at ground level, but at waist and hand level. These and many other new high tech mobility aids are constantly being developed and improved and this will revolutionize travel for visually impaired persons. The two basic mobility aids that are still the most reliable and universally used are the white cane and the guide dog. RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES SPORTS AND HOBBIES As with every other aspect of life, visually impaired persons pursue the full range of recreational activities including individual and team sports, card and board games. They also are engaged in hobbies of all kinds, including sewing, knitting, crocheting, art and music. Leisure time activities that individuals with visual disabilities choose depend on their interest, abilities and stamina. Remember that there is an alternative method of doing nearly everything. Visually impaired sports enthusiasts find many ingenious ways to compensate for their lack of vision. For example, blind cross-country skiers ski with a sighted guide who skis beside or behind them and gives them verbal clues about the environment. Blind golfers play with a sighted partner who helps them keep track of their ball. Blind bowlers sometimes use a guide rail to keep their approach straight. Blind cyclists ride on tandem bicycles with a sighted captain riding on the front. Blind runners sometimes run touching hands with a partner or just follow verbal directions from a fellow runner. Here are just some of the activities that many blind and visually impaired persons are known to participate in: Bicycling Kayaking Canoeing Sailing Dancing Skiing Diving Surfing Golfing Swimming Hang Gliding Track and Field Hiking Wind Surfing Braille and large print playing cards enable visually impaired persons to enjoy the social pleasures of card games such as bridge, poker, pinochle, and canasta. Braille and large print board games include Monopoly, Scrabble, Parcheesi, Clue, and many others. To find out about recreational opportunities in your community, contact the service agency for the visually impaired nearest you.

DESCRIPTIVE VIDEO SERVICE Descriptive Video Service (DVS) is a national service of the OF The Media Access Group at WGBH in Boston. WGBH are the call letters for this transmitting station. DVS conveys the key visual aspects of a film or television program by describing scenery, facial expressions, and costumes during natural pauses in dialogue to help low-vision viewers to better understand the story. To receive DVS on television programs, you must have a television set equipped with a Separate Audio Program (SAP) channel sometimes called Audio B. The SAP channel is standard on most TVs and VCRs. When you tune to your SAP channel, you will hear the regular soundtrack of the show and the descriptions. Descriptions of movies are placed on the main soundtrack of the videotape so no special equipment is required beyond a standard Videocassette Recorder.

Ranging from the simplest of low tech devices which respond to functional challenges, to the most sophisticated high tech solutions, technology is making it possible for people to transcend their disabilities and live independently, work competitively, and get much more enjoyment out of life. ACCESS THROUGH ELECTRONICS For individuals with visual impairments, the lack of access to the universe of information only available in print or other visual media has for centuries posed an enormous barrier both to independent living and to employment. Now, thanks to the emergence of the electronic age, access to printed information is greatly enhanced for blind and visually impaired persons. Computers have neutralized some of the most disabling aspects of visual impairment by creating immediate access to the printed word. They have also opened up a vast new body of information by making the Internet available. Software enlarges the print and images on computer monitors, so that low vision individuals can read their screens. Speech Synthesizers produce speech output for totally blind persons. Translation Programs produce Braille printouts of any material contained in a computer file. Reading Machines which are comprised of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) devices in tandem with conversion software, read printed books and other materials by scanning the print and producing the output in enlarged print, speech, or Braille. Access to the printed word is therefore now immediate, compared to those not so long ago days when it took weeks or months to have materials translated into Braille or read onto tape. THE CLOSED CIRCUIT TELEVISION One of the most useful devices for persons with low vision is the Closed Circuit Television (CCTV). This machine will magnify print from any source (e.g. books, papers, letters, etc.) onto a TV screen. The user can adjust the size of the letters, ranging from just a little larger than normal to large enough to fill the screen with only one letter. The CCTVs are available from a number of sources. See the Directory of Vendors of Assistive Technology listed in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. FINDING OUT WHAT IS AVAILABLE There are a staggering number and variety of electronic devices, which have been designed for blind and visually impaired persons. It can be difficult and confusing for individuals to select the right device for their own specific needs. A good way to look at all the options and experience hands-on demonstrations is to attend one of the conferences where there is a large exhibit area with a broad representation of exhibitors. Such conferences are held by the California Council of the Blind (CCB), the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) of California and the Center on Disabilities at the California State University at Northridge (CSUN). The CCB and the NFB of California hold two conferences per year, one in northern and one in southern California. The CSUN holds its annual conference in Los Angeles in March. The contact information for these organizations is listed below.

These representatives will come to your home and show you their equipment. This is a good way to learn what is available and what might be helpful to you. A list of these vendors is included in the Directory of Vendors of Assistive Technology listed in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. LOW TECH WORKS TOO Although most people think in terms of computers when thinking of technology, assistive technology devices and services for persons with disabilities include an unlimited range of appliances and activities. Assistive Technology includes any tool, device, or apparatus which enables a person with a disability to perform a function he or she cannot perform without it. Just about anything, no matter how simple can be considered Assistive Technology. For visually impaired persons, there are hundreds of gadgets to help function independently around the house. They include Large Print clocks and timers, talking scales, Large Print and talking thermometers, measuring cups, spoons, and tape measures with enlarged print and raised lines, needle threaders, sock sorters, knives with cutting guides, sensors that beep when liquid being poured reaches the top of the glass. There are beepers that sound off to help you find your keys, glasses or purse, and that is only the beginning. Many people develop their own technology, such as the woman with the use of only one hand who discovered that if she put a nail in her cutting board, she could hold an onion or tomato in place while slicing it one-handed. Most visually impaired persons develop countless systems and devices for themselves to help with day-to-day activities. MOBILITY AIDS Technology is also developed to enhance mobility. For example, there are glasses that provide auditory information about the environment, hand held scanners that detect the location and intensity of light and Talking Signs which indicate the location of features such as public telephones and bus stops. A good way to find out about the assistive technology that may be helpful to you is to browse through catalogs. There are several vendors that offer a general inventory of household aids, tools, magnification equipment, tape recorders, recreational materials, etc. A list of these vendors is included in the Directory of Vendors of Catalogs of Merchandise listed in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. Many of the vendors on the Vendors of Technology list will provide you with a free catalog. The AT Network, affiliated with the Department of Rehabilitation and the Alliance for Technology Access, is a statewide project which promotes access to assistive technologies, related services, and information to enable people with disabilities to be successful, independent and productive. You may also wish to contact the AT Network for referral to sources of assistive technology in your community at: (800) 390-2699. For additional information on the AT Network, refer to the Vendors of Assistive Technology listed in the Directory of Resources section of this Handbook. ORGANIZATIONS AND ASSOCIATIONS In addition to the services described in Chapter III of this Handbook, there are other organizations and associations that may be of interest to you. Some sponsor research on specific eye diseases, some do research on a wide variety of topics related to visual impairment and publish informational books, pamphlets, and newsletters. Others are consumer organizations with chapters throughout the United States whose members engage in various kinds of advocacy for individuals who are visually impaired. CONSUMER ORGANIZATIONS AMERICAN COUNCIL OF THE BLIND The American Council of the Blind (ACB) is the nation's leading membership organization of blind and visually impaired people.

NATIONAL FEDERATION OF THE BLIND Founded in 1940, the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) has grown to include more than ten percent of the nations blind population. The NFB is organized in every state and has local chapters, of varying sizes, in almost every community. Where there is no local chapter, there are generally members at large. The purpose of the NFB is the complete integration of the blind into society on a basis of equality. This objective involves the removal of legal, economic and social discriminations; the education of the public to new concepts concerning blindness; and the achievement by all blind people of the right to exercise to the fullest, their individual talents and capacities. The NFB believes that the newly blind person faces a difficult adjustment. One of the best medicines is to meet other blind people and learn of their jobs and the techniques they use in doing things without sight. The NFB provides this common meeting ground, and even more important, a sense of participation and restoration of confidence. Members of the NFB contact newly blind persons to help them with problems of adjustment and orientation. Information is also given concerning available services from governmental and private agencies, as well as facts about laws and regulations concerning the blind. The NFB is the voice of the blind, the blind speaking for themselves.

Light-enhancers, special glasses, magnifiers, closed circuit television, telescopes or other devices may be prescribed at these facilities. The purpose of these low vision optical aids is to allow persons with severely limited vision the ability to use their remaining vision more efficiently. This enables them to expand and retain their independence while performing daily living activities. After an optical aid has been prescribed, a vision care professional will give careful instruction on how to use it. Sometimes more than one optical aid will be prescribed for an individual. Before an optical aid is purchased, it will often be available to take home and use on a trial basis. The eye examination and the low vision optical aids may be paid for by Medicare and/or the California Department of Rehabilitation. Sometimes a non-profit or other service organization will help with these costs if there is no other funding source. Some clinics or doctors offices will handle the paper work and fill out the forms required by these funding sources for your convenience. NORTHERN CALIFORNIA REGION BERKELEY Meredith W.
