Collaboration Events

Collaboration Events spotlight other organizations in the blindness and low vision field and the services they provide. While Leader Dog offers many programs, we know there are additional resources that can benefit our clients and community. These virtual events take place bi-monthly on the last Wednesday at 3 p.m. EST and are open to anyone. After registering, you’ll receive a confirmation email with details on how to join.
