Formerly known as the Council of Citizens with Low Vision International, we are an advocacy membership organization whose purposes are:
- To establish the right of persons with low vision to make full use of their vision through all available aids, services, and technology.
- To provide a mechanism through which low vision people can express their individual needs, interests, and preferences.
- To educate the general public, professionals, and low-vision people themselves about the potentialities, capabilities, and needs of low-vision people.
- To establish outreach programs to ensure that all individuals with low vision have access to necessary services.
- To promote research to prevent blindness, improve maximum utilization of sight, and improve environmental conditions and access for people with low vision.
CCLVI is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization and a Special Interest Affiliate of the American Council of the Blind.
