Vista Center for the Blind & Visually Impaired empowers individuals who are blind or visually impaired to embrace life to its fullest through evaluation, education, counseling and training. Vista Center serves more than 3,000 people and their families each year in its four county area, providing programs in San Mateo, Santa Clara, San Benito and Santa Cruz counties. Vista Center offers its life-changing services and programs through the generous support of the community - including financial contributions from grantors, foundations, and individuals; in-kind donations; and volunteerism.
Vision loss affects one in every eight people in Santa Cruz County. For individuals over 65 years of age, it affects one in six people. The senior population in Santa Cruz County has grown by 43% in the last eight years. A continued spike in the senior population is anticipated to occur over the next 15 years. From its low vision store to its safe and healthy living workshops and support groups, Vista Center Santa Cruz is positioned to accommodate this predicted growth in the need for vision loss care.
