The Lions Blind Center- Oakland is a Rehabilitation Facility dedicated to the full integration into society of individuals who are blind and visually impaired. The Center staff strives to develop and offer high quality, accredited programs to meet the needs of clients experiencing vision loss within the greater East Bay region. Our Rehabilitation Program curricula encompass training in Orientation and Mobility, Daily Living Skills, Occupational Skills Training and Adaptive Technology. Our instructors are certified and Master’s trained.

The majority of Center program funding is through either the Department of Rehabilitation or the Regional Center of the East Bay. Most client referral to Center programs is through DOR Rehabilitation Counselors, or Case Workers. Senior Centers and other Rehabilitation facilities also seek services for their clients at the Center. An individual may seek services without a referral by calling the Lions Blind Center – Oakland at 510-450-1580. Persons receiving services must be 18 or older. In addition, persons aged 55 and older may be eligible to receive grant funded services from the Center without charge under the the Federal Title VII Grant.
