About Us
Blind Children’s Learning Center, a non-profit agency, was founded in 1962 by six blind adults originally as “Services for the Blind Orange County” to provide support for blind individuals. The founders quickly discovered the key to helping visually impaired children was to start working with them at a very early age. Today our mission is to provide early intervention, education and services for blind, visually impaired or deaf-blind children and their families to empower independence. Through four core programs Infant Family Focus, Early Childhood Center, Outreach and Therapy Services, Blind Children’s Learning Center works to provide blind, visually impaired or deaf-blind children the opportunity to integrate fully into the community.

The Value of Your Sponsorship
“Blind and visually impaired children have the same dreams as sighted children. The only difference is they must overcome unique obstacles standing in their way. Your support can change their lives.” -Kim Neuhauser, President/Executive Director
Blind Children’s Learning Center Fall Golf Classic provides an opportunity for companies and individuals to support the Center (which is the only school of its kind in Orange County) and to network with a dynamic and diverse group of community/business leaders and school supporters. Corporate and community support enables Blind Children’s Learning Center to continue to be on the cutting edge by providing programs that help tear down the barriers blind and visually impaired children and their families face. Your sponsorship is important. Proceeds from Blind Children’s Learning Center Fall Golf Classic help provide: -Infant development specialists that help parents bond with their babies with means other than sight. -Orientation and Mobility specialists to instruct students in safe and independent travel skills. -Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, Physical Therapists that work in collaboration to enhance a child’s learning opportunities.
