Information and Referral
Often the most confusing thing about finding the services and products you need to help you remain independent is knowing where to look and who to ask.
The Guild's Information and Referral program is the answer. Our program is designed to assist the community to obtain the information they need -- information that will empower the blind or visually impaired to live independently and with dignity. Guild staff has catalogued all their practical and professional knowledge and are eager to share this information with you.
The Guild, will provide you with answers to your questions, contact names for agencies that provide a wide range of services, referrals, fact sheets, registration forms, or whatever information you seek. If the Guild doesn't have the answers, we will direct you to someone who does.
As part of its Information and Referral program, the Guild publishes a free, monthly newsletter, Guild Briefs, packed with informative articles describing programs, services, scholarships, products, and activities designed for people who are blind or visually impaired.
For the answers you need, contact the Guild at (312) 236-8569 or by email at info@guildfortheblind.org.
