Employment Immersion July Virtual Workshop

Employment Immersion July Virtual Workshop


Jul 23

July's workshop runs weekdays from July 6 to 31.

There IS a job market! Job seekers who are blind and have low vision are in demand to work remotely. Let LightHouse support you on your pathway to employment in these challenging times.

Our award-winning Employment Immersion program is now available virtually. Now is the time to join us via the Zoom conferencing platform. The program begins the first Monday of every month and runs each weekday. This comprehensive month-long training is specifically designed for people who are blind and have low vision. We are committed to providing group and individual guidance from the fundamentals of job search, to the complexities of disclosure of one’s disability with pride and confidence, to instruction on job search techniques, to honing interview skills. Most importantly, this program focuses on the participant’s individual job goals.

To learn more about this exciting opportunity, please contact the team through email: eiteam@lighthouse-sf.org.

30% & Growing (Online). with Special Guests, LightHouse's Employment Immersion Team


Jul 23

We’re a few months into this new COVID-19 employment landscape and each one of us in the 30% & Growing crew brings a different experience to the table. We’ve shared everything from the challenge of recognizing instability in our livelihood that necessitated an out of state move to successful second round interviews and placement in seemingly impossible times. How has the employment game changed for the blind and low vision community in these unusual and challenging times? We’re going to gather some insight from our very own in-house experts on this very subject in July—the LightHouse Employment Immersion team will be our very special guest, so if you’re a veteran 30%er, an in-transition 30%er, or an aspiring 30%er to be, please join us for this very special edition of 30% & Growing to get your finger on the pulse of what’s new in employment for the blind and low vision community.

For July only, 30% is happening a little later, so join your 30% & Growing crew on the fourth Thursday, July 23 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. For Zoom access info, RSVP to Adult Program Coordinator Serena Olsen at SOlsen@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7316. Then grab a bite to eat and your favorite beverage and join the virtual networking party.

Enchanted Hills Camp Virtual Teen Session

Enchanted Hills Camp Virtual Teen Session


Jul 23

We’re hosting a virtual teen session at Enchanted Hills Camp! Tell your friends, tell your classmates, tell any people you know who are blind or have low vision between the ages of 14 and 20, because we’re trying to make sure you all have an excellent session.

Join us daily July 16 through July 25 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for good vibes, great company, and another magical (but totally unusual) summer of EHC.

During the virtual session, you’ll have access to Zoom in to multiple virtual activities a day. We’ve done our part to come up with some cool activities and to schedule everything in the afternoon and evening, so you don’t even have to choose between participating and sleeping in - genius, we know. Now, all we need is for you to join us. You’re not obligated to participate in every activity, every day, but we would love for you to drop in for as many as you can.

Contact Alyah Thomas at athomas@lighthouse-sf.org for a full schedule of events for the session.

The events for the upcoming week are read aloud on our event hotline every Friday, which can be accessed by calling 415-694-7325. For more information about visiting the Adaptations Store, head to our shop page.
