The Lighthouse of Houston offers a variety of programs for youth and adults who are blind or visually impaired. Our programs are structured to increase the quality of life and experiences through establishing community independence and develop community for the blind. Lighthouse programs provide services that identify and develop the individual strengths and needs of each person with visual disabilities so they may reach their full emotional, social and educational potential.
