Georgia Council of the Blind

The Georgia Council of the Blind Inc., an affiliate of the American Council of the Blind, is a consumer organization that strives to elevate the social, economic and cultural levels of the blind. Our organization works toward providing a forum for views of the blind, improving education and rehabilitation, and broadening vocational opportunities. Peer support is an important part of the Georgia Council of the Blind, as it encourages and assists the blind in developing their abilities and potential to become independent and responsible citizens in their communities. We also work hard to educate the public about the problems of blindness and the capabilities of blind people.
