HEAR WHAT MEMBERS OF THE CDCVI TEAM HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE REBIRTH OF OUR ORGANIZATION!

Bill Watson, Board Chairman of The Conklin Davis Center For The Visually Impaired

Bill Watson, Board Chairman

Every time I see a CDCVI student learning a new skill, landing their first job, singing, playing an instrument, or becoming a new CDCVI graduate, my heart sings!  It’s something you have to see to believe.

They couldn’t see.  But they could believe. 
And they did just that.

Virtually my entire life’s work has been dedicated to serving the blind and visually impaired.  

Helping one person to live life to its fullest is enough.  CDCVI helps thousands.    

COMMUNITIES & LIVES ARE TRANSFORMED
SO THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND ACHIEVE PERSONAL SUCCESS

The Conklin Davis Center for the Visually Impaired’s long term commitment to our mission has been in place since 1988. Our mission is to provide a lifetime of comprehensive services that create unlimited hope, opportunity, and independence for blind and visually impaired people.
