rdf:langString Cleveland Sight Center (CSC) is a CARF accredited non-profit agency founded in 1906 that provides developmental, rehabilitation and vocational services to individuals who are blind or visually impaired, directly serving approximately 10,000 clients annually in Northeast Ohio and many more indirectly through its radio-reading and community outreach programs. In addition to providing educational and rehabilitative services, CSC also offers social and recreational activities for its clients, hosts camping sessions at its summer camp Highbrook Lodge, and has a Low vision Clinic and Eyedea Shop. More than 100 specially trained staff members, including social workers, optometrists, certified vision rehabilitation therapists, orientation and mobility instructors, occupational therapists, educators, nurses, and other professionals work to help individuals with vision loss to live and work independently. Although unique services are available for each age group, many activities, especially social and recreational activities, overlap to enable clients to achieve independence.
