    Aging and Disability Services: Bureau of Education and Services for the Blind

    Welcome to the Department of Aging and Disability Services. Our programs, policies and practices are designed to:

    • Deliver integrated aging and disability services responsive to the needs of Connecticut citizens;
    • Provide leadership on aging and disability issues statewide;
    • Provide and coordinate aging and disability programs and services in the areas of employment, education, independent living, accessibility and advocacy;
    • Advocate for the rights of Connecticut residents with disabilities and older adults; and

    The Bureau of Education and Services for the Blind enables its clients to become more self-sufficient and to maximize their participation in the community, at school and in employment settings. It is important to note that most people who are legally blind retain a significant degree of practical vision.
