The Blind Children’s Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1938 by Southern California Delta Gamma Alumnae. Our goal is to optimize each child’s development and opportunities to lead a meaningful life through a comprehensive program beginning with early intervention, followed by educational curriculum adapted to the needs of each student. All services are provided FREE OF CHARGE thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

We are committed to a family-focused approach where siblings, parents, grandparents, and caregivers are included in every step of the educational process. All programs are inclusive with sighted children in each class, providing unique opportunities for social interaction and acquisition of critical skills. Our multidisciplinary team utilizes leading-edge technology and adaptive devices, enabling students who are visually impaired to keep pace in the sighted world and reach their highest potential.
