What is Family Weekend?

This is an opportunity for families who have a child with vision loss (including those with additional disabilities) to listen to informational speakers, and to meet other families from across North Dakota and staff from North Dakota Vision Services/School for the Blind.

Spring is right around the corner, bringing sunshine with it! We are inviting our students to join us in our upcoming Middle School Short-Term Program, "Here Comes the Sun!"

Adult Training Weeks are for adults who are experiencing vision loss.  Whether you are new to vision loss or are experiencing a change in your vision we are here to help you navigate those changes.

NDVS/SB is excited to be hosting a pop-up training for young adults (seniors in high school through age 26) in Minot on Saturday, March 5. Please see the attached flyer for additional information. Please share with others who would be interested.
