About the event

Two young women sitting at a cafe holding their white canes, smiling at one another.

Join us for Navigating Vision Loss as a Young Person, a supportive program where teens can connect, share their experiences, and learn how to navigate life with vision loss. Facilitated by the GDV Wellbeing Team andPlann two young adults with lived experience, this space is all about real talk – from mental health struggles and coping strategies to building friendships, advocating for yourself, and setting goals for the future. Through chill discussions, role-playing, and hands-on activities, teens will explore how to manage stress, handle awkward social situations, communicate with family, and develop the confidence to speak up for what they need. It’s all about creating a supportive community, building independence, and taking on the challenges of vision loss with strength and support.
