SERVICE PHILOSOPHY
We
believe that individuals who are blind or visually impaired,
including those with new vision loss, have unique needs that merit the
attention and support from the Guild's knowledgeable staff members and
from the most current resources available.
We believe children and adults who are blind or visually
impaired have the right to receive respect and attain independence at
home, in the workplace, and in the community.
We believe that
it is important to promote positive attitudes about blindness among people
who are sighted and among people who are blind or visually impaired.
We believe
blindness is often misunderstood and that we must work to educate
the community regarding what blindness is and how people who are blind
live independently.
We believe that
we must obtain and encourage feedback from the individuals we serve and
that we must listen to and respond to that feedback in the most appropriate
manner.
