ORGANIZATION: Envision

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

We all come into this world with different talents and skills, and every person deserves to be as independent as possible. People Reaching for Independence and the Development of Excellence (PRIDE) is a program designed for adults who are legally blind and have an intellectual developmental disability. Through PRIDE, we develop individualized programs of specialized services based on a person’s goals and abilities. We want to make everyone as independent as possible while encouraging self-confidence and enriching self-esteem.

A large group from Envision PRIDE is going to the Kansas State Fair. We will need as many Volunteers as we can get on that day to go with the group.

Mission Statement

The mission of Envision is to improve the quality of life and provide inspiration and opportunity for people who are blind or visually impaired through employment, outreach, rehabilitation, education and research.

Description

Envision

The right choices and resources can open doors to new worlds of opportunity, especially if you are blind or low vision. Since 1933, Envision has become one of the nation’s most trusted service and employment providers for people who are blind or low vision. Envision provides services to people of all ages. From providing a job to providing much needed resources, the goal is always the same - independence.

Envision Industries

For most Americans, holding a job is a sign of independence. Unfortunately, more than 70 percent of individuals who are blind or low vision are unemployed or underemployed. Almost 50 percent of the 400 Envision employees are blind or low vision, making Envision the nation’s second largest employer of individuals who are blind or low vision.
