The National Organization of Parents of Blind Children
(NOPBC) is a division of the National Federation of the Blind. Our programming focuses on educating parents on how to raise blind children to become successful, independent blind adults.
Our programming includes:
Holding informational seminars at our annual convention.
Providing free braille books through our braille book fair.
Introduction to cane use through our Cane Walk
Social and recreational opportunities for the children and parents alike.
Check out our "Keep Calm it's Just a Cane" hoodie too!
We specialize in reliable information and positive attitudes about blindness and the abilities of blind people. We don't view blindness as a tragedy or as the defining factor in a child's life; instead, we see it as just one of the child's many characteristics.
Our status as a division of the National Federation of the Blind, the largest and most influential organization of blind people in the world, provides many benefits. Our members are well informed about the technological, legislative, and societal issues that affect blind people. We also enjoy the resources, support, and expertise of 50,000 blind people who can serve as mentors and role models for our children. And finally, as our children grow up, they, too, have the Federation to belong to.
The purpose of the NOPBC is to:
Create a climate of opportunity for blind children in home and society.
Provide information and support to parents of blind children.
Facilitate the sharing of experience and concerns among parents of blind children.
Develop and expand resources available to parents and their children.
Help parents of blind children gain understanding and perspective through partnership and contact with blind adults.
Function as an integral part of the National Federation of the Blind in its ongoing effort to achieve equality and opportunity for all blind persons.

my daughter, Lora is a Braille reader!
My daughter's hope for success, self-confidence, and fulfillment would have been lost (or severely impaired) had we not found the National Federation of the Blind and its Parents' Division, the NOPBC. I will never be able to repay the debt I owe!
I am legally blind and buying this for my VI teacher as an end of the school year gift.
Support Braille literacy and POBC
Getting some teacher gift. Proud to support the National Organization of Parents of Blind Children
My 7 month old son is blind and I want to learn Braille so I can understand how he will experience reading.
My 2 year old son is legally blind, has only limited light perception in one eye
Without the guidance of the NOPBC and NFB it is unlikely that my VI children would be Braille literate.
