Tampa Lighthouse for the Blind

We are thrilled to announce that Tampa Lighthouse for the Blind is now Lighthouse for the Blind & Low Vision! The support of the community over the years has meant a great deal to the clients we serve and has been critical in helping us continue to provide comprehensive, quality programs and services that allow our clients to maximize their independence in the home, in the community, at school, and/or in the workplace. We feel it was important to express a clearer description of who not only those who are blind but those who have low vision and where we serve. The removal of Tampa from our name reduces confusion as to where we serve since our geographical footprint includes Hillsborough, Polk, and Hardee counties, as well as specialized rehabilitation engineering services throughout the state. This change will help bring more definition of our agency within the community, as we continue our mission to maximize and guide those with vision loss to the independence we all deserve. ...
