Perkins School for the Blind

Our Perkins Story

If you’re looking for a chance to change the world for children and young adults with multiple disabilities and visual impairments, Perkins School for the Blind has opportunities for you.

We’re looking for energetic and talented individuals committed to helping people reach their full potential. Our work begins with students on our campus in Watertown, Massachusetts, but spans the globe with partnerships that help the world’s most vulnerable children.

Education and accessibility are civil rights. Everybody’s voice matters. And the world is a better place when everyone -- including people with disabilities -- participates. Helen Keller, Perkins’ most famous deafblind student, championed these values nearly 100 years ago, and today Perkins is taking this inclusion imperative worldwide.
