Our Mission
To enhance independence for people with vision loss and to be the leader in promoting vision health.

Who We Serve
CNIB is a source of support, information, and most importantly, hope, for all Canadians affected by vision loss. Anyone can come to CNIB. CNIB is active in every region of the country, with staff and volunteers working in offices and often traveling to provide support to clients in their homes and in rural communities.

What We Do
We provide vital programs and services, innovative consumer products, research, peer support and one of the world's largest libraries for people with print disabilities.

We focus on protection and prevention today, as well as on treatments and cures for tomorrow.
