Our Vision for the Future is to continue preventing avoidable blindness while minimizing the effect of visual impairments on the quality of life for persons experiencing blindness and other visual impairments residing in Clarion, Forest, and Venango counties.
The Pennsylvania Association for the Blind (PAB) originated in Pittsburgh in 1910. By 1913 there were branch agencies across Pennsylvania. Those branch agencies became their own entities over time and were then member agencies of the PAB. The Venango County Association for the Blind was fully incorporated in 1939 and has served faithfully as a PAB member agency ever since. Since then, the VCAB has also taken on Clarion and Forest County representation as well.
We now serve approximately 100 blind and visually impaired consumers and provide eye screenings and educations for preschools, schools, workplaces, senior centers, and libraries over three counties (Clarion, Forest, and Venango).
