Kitchen Confidence

The kitchen is full of sharp objects, hot stoves and ovens, as well as a confusing cadre of spices, bottles and breakable items. It can be a downright intimidating place for someone with limited vision. But Braille Institute’s programs teach people with visual impairments how to relearn their way around the kitchen and regain their confidence.

Here are a few classes and seminars to get you or a loved one back in the kitchen! Classes resume January 4, 2010...
