Ontario-Wide Virtual Services

As a part of our ongoing commitment to provide an open world for persons who are blind or living with sight loss, BALANCE for Blind Adults is thrilled to announce significant expansions in our services as we seek to broaden our impact throughout Ontario. We are expanding our remote Assistive Technology Training and Mental Health Support Programs to better serve communities across the province. All of our programs in these two areas will now be open to persons with visual disabilities (who meet our eligibility criteria) residing in any part of the province, and will no longer be restricted to the Toronto area (as long as they can connect to the program).

Until now, BALANCE service has been focused almost entirely within the City of Toronto. For the past 4 years, BALANCE has been successfully providing services remotely (via Zoom or phone) in both these service areas, in City of Toronto and the GTA, with some group events and workshops open nationwide. We have successfully built our capacity so we can now offer these two specific services to people with visual disabilities who live in your region, anywhere in the province of Ontario.  Our goal is to both broaden our reach, and deepen our impact, ensuring that individuals across Ontario have the necessary support and tools to succeed.
