Back by popular demand! Please join LightHouse for the Blind for Provider’s Weekend, held at our beautiful Enchanted Hills Retreat in Napa.
The purpose of this weekend is to bring together a diverse group of professional service providers working in the field of blindness to exchange ideas and build a network. You will have the opportunity to stay in a lakeside cabin, the lodge or one of our fully accessible cabins next to the dining hall.
When: May 18–20, 2012
Where: Enchanted Hills Retreat
In addition to discussing philosophies, trends and issues we face in providing services for people with visual impairments, you can enjoy the heated swimming pool, a lake for boating, trails for hiking and savory meals provided by a wonderful kitchen staff. You’ll learn from your peers, relax in a natural setting with many recreational opportunities and, most of all, YOU WILL HAVE A GREAT TIME! For information and reservations contact Tony Fletcher at 415-694-7319 or afletcher@lighthouse-sf.org.
I have never been to one of these events. I feel that as a grad student it would give me an idea of working with in the blind community. Because i am blind i think that this would be a great place to network as well as share my thoughts and ideas with people in the field.
I am happy that Provider’s Weekend is happening again. It was missed the past few years. This weekend event is a great way to network with blindness community partners. Those connections have served me well in promoting activities in the community and as an Information and Resource Coordinator. I know the resources in my geographic area better. Oh, and did I say fun pool, sunshine, relaxation, good food and a learning atmosphere is what you will find at Enchanted Hills Retreat! If you can sign up to go you will not be sorry.
