Crafters’
Association of the
Blind & Visually Impaired Program
The
Crafters’ Association is a program designed for CBVI consumers
who want to make handcrafted products for either recreational or
self-employment purposes.
Program participants are visited in their home, where an assessment
of their particular craft interest, production proficiency and material
needs is conducted. If necessary, training is provided, along with
product design, color and pricing suggestions, to enhance quality
and marketability.
Upon completion, products are picked up and sold at craft fairs
and in a variety of venues. Crafters’ set the price for each
of their items and are paid the full amount when the product is
sold.
The Crafters’ Association Program provides individuals who
are blind or severely visually impaired with opportunities for creative
expression, recreational activity, and self-sufficiency through
home-based employment.
