VisionLink

VisionLink is a private non-profit organization created to connect people with vision loss to resources for life, through training, educational and enrichment programming, and in-community partnerships. VisionLink strengthens access to care and supportive services based on individual goals, this work contributes to a more accessible city and region.

We provide classes and training in home management and adaptive technology and serve as a link to enriching arts, cultural and community activities in partnership with organizations throughout Philadelphia. We also connect people with regional agencies and resources for help navigating issues related to health, housing, employment, education, transportation, and more.

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

VisionLink is fully committed to diversity, equity and inclusion. We embrace the diversity within our organization and within the multi-faceted community we serve. We embrace the principles of equity, fairness, and inclusion and we remain committed to best practices for providing anyone, anywhere on the vision loss continuum with the education, tools, and wrap-around services that they need to navigate their communities, manage their specific visual challenges, and live their fullest lives. 

At VisionLink we realize that there are many forms of diversity including racial, gender, sexual identity, cultural, religious, economic, ability and disability, and we work diligently to be open and welcoming to all. Our work is collaborative – with those we serve, with our professional staff, with healthcare professionals, with community partner organizations, and with other human services agencies regionally and nationally. We believe that this collaborative framework, across disciplines and communities, as well as our commitment to serving those with vision loss makes our organizational efforts more diverse, more equitable, more inclusive, and more sustainable over time.
