Join IATP and Mary Bryant Home for the Blind and Visually Impaired at the Central and Southern Illinois Low Vision Technology Fair. This is a FREE event for individuals who experience any type of vision loss and/or blindness.

Unfortunately, many people are unaware of the devices and services available to help them. This event brings together vendors, medical experts, and social service agencies to share information and resources with those who experience vision loss, their families, friends, caregivers, teachers, and others.

Join us for Exhibits, Speakers, Lunch, and Door Prizes. To RSVP for lunch, call (800) 852-5110.
