The Iris Network is dedicated to helping people with vision impairment or blindness attain independence and community integration.
Our assisted living facility is looking to increase its offerings and opportunities for recreational activities including health and wellness! Would you like to lead a yoga class? Meditation? Maybe just a guided walk? A low impact nature walk?
Please let us know! We are open to suggestions.
All volunteers must be located in the New England area. We do not offer visa sponsorship for work or volunteer opportunities.

Mission Statement
Helping people who are visually impaired or blind attain independence and community integration.
Description
Established in 1905, The Iris Network has been helping Maine's visually impaired community learn independent living skills through work of Vision Rehabilitation Therapists. At our main location we have an assisted living facility as well as the Training Center. The Training Center is to help people transitioning into independent life through 10-20 week programs which teach braille, cooking, knife skills, activity of daily living skills, basic home maintenance and pre-vocational skills such as resume writing, interviewing and assistive technologies.
