78th Annual State Convention Sponsors
We are thankful to the following community partners for their commitment to the transformative work of the blind in Ohio. Their support enables the blindness community to be even stronger.
Vanda Pharmaceuticals
Dedicated to raising awareness of Non-24-Hour Sleep Wake Disorder (Non-24) and supporting the blindness community. Non-24 is a rare circadian rhythm disorder affecting people who are totally blind. People living with non-24 experience excessive daytime sleepiness and nighttime sleeplessness, which leads to impaired social and occupational function.
Disability Rights Ohio
A non-profit corporation with a mission to advocate for the human, civil, and legal rights of people with disabilities in Ohio.
Cincinnati Association for the Blind & Visually Impaired
A private, not-for-profit organization offering comprehensive services and job opportunities for people of all ages who are blind or visually impaired. Every day we work to ensure full lives and community inclusion for those we serve.
Ohio Legal Services for Seniors-Pro Seniors
We help Ohio seniors resolve legal & long-term care problems & fight Medicare and financial fraud. Our Legal Helpline Provides free legal information, advice, and referral for residents of Ohio age 60 and over, regardless of income or resources. The Mid-America Pension Rights Project provides information and guidance related to pensions and retirement benefits. The Senior Financial Exploitation Project provides advice about preventing financial exploitation and helps resolve the legal problems caused by financial exploitation.
We would like to thank the Norwalk Ohio Lions Club for supporting our 2024 scholarship program again this year.
