We are in need of athlete escorts/sighted buddies for our Junior Blind Olympics being held on Saturday, April 29th at our campus in Los Angeles.
The Junior Blind Olympics is the premier sporting event for blind, visually impaired, or multi-disabled youth, ages 6-22. By promoting fitness and self-esteem while offering opportunities for learning, socialization, teamwork and physical activity, the Junior Blind Olympics helps youth to develop the skills they need to thrive in adulthood.
Please check out the Junior Blind Olympics video to see what the event is all about - https://vimeo.com/121334861.

Mission Statement
Wayfinder Family Services (formerly Junior Blind) ensures that children, youth and adults facing challenges always have a place to turn. We strive for a world in which every child and family can overcome the obstacles they face--a world where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Description
Wayfinder Family Services is the place to turn for people facing the greatest challenges. We provide expert, individualized support and services to children, youth and adults, from those who have vision loss or profound special needs to foster youth with serious medical conditions or trauma, and their families.
As we have done since our founding, we continue to offer all of our direct services at no cost to our families. This is especially critical for those we serve, nearly 92 percent of whom are low income. For all these individuals, Wayfinder Family Services is the only place in California able to provide the highly individualized help they need to thrive.
