DescEstablished in 1911, the Cincinnati Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (CABVI) provides counseling, rehabilitation, information and employment services to people who are blind, visually impaired, or print impaired in the Greater Cincinnati area. Initially, CABVI employed men who made brooms and mops. In the 1960s, CABVI initiated several rehabilitation services, including low vision, rehabilitation teaching, orientation and mobility, and social services. In the 1980s, computer access and early childhood intervention services were established. In January 1998, Radio Reading Services of Greater Cincinnati (RRS) merged with CABVI to become a service of CABVI. Today, CABVI is a comprehensive multi-service vision rehabilitation organization serving and assisting 5,001 persons who are blind or visually impaired in 2013.Desc
