Welcome to the Introduction to Independent Living Skills online, self-study mini-course. As you complete each module, you will learn key techniques for managing daily tasks with vision loss, while maintaining your independence.

We will cover a variety of Independent Living topics relevant to your daily life, including tactile marking and labeling in the kitchen, money management strategies, ways to dine out with confidence, and more. Feel free to visit and revisit these lessons as often as needed, until you feel comfortable and confident that you can apply these techniques at home.

Intro to Independent Living Skills is designed for those living with vision loss, as well as family members or caregivers looking to support individuals with vision loss. Thank you for joining us!
