About
In 2012, VISIONS Center on Aging became the first older adult center for blind and low vision older adults. As one of the original eight Innovative Older Adult Centers, we are proud to be a part of the City's Age-Friendly NYC Initiative. We are the first city-funded older adult center exclusively designed for older adults who are blind or severely visually impaired in the United States. Our Center is fully accessible for those with vision loss, but we welcome all older adults, aged 60 years+ to join us including unpaid caregivers of blind older adults.
