CNIB - Canadian National Institute for the Blind

Founded in 1918, the CNIB Foundation is a non-profit organization driven to change what it is to be blind today. We deliver innovative programs and powerful advocacy that empower people impacted by blindness to live their dreams and tear down barriers to inclusion. Our work as a blind foundation is powered by a network of volunteers, donors and partners from coast to coast to coast.

There’s always something going on at CNIB! Whether it’s children and youth groups, employment workshops, recreational activities, peer support groups or technology training sessions, our innovative programs are designed to educate, engage and support our participants across all areas of their lives.

CNIB programs are free and available to Canadians who are blind or partially sighted, as well as their families, friends and caregivers.
