Beyond those offerings and work efforts, DVCCLV is more than a  sedentary or subdued group. Members have fun and don’t let their low vision get in their way. Together they have done things such as dancing in a line dancing workshop, and even took on dining in a hustle bustle restaurant right outside the Gallery Mall In Center City, Philadelphia, during the holiday season

 

Benefits of becoming a member of DVCCLV are many. Each Member is able to attend monthly meetings and are provided a full membership list with contact information for other members of the organization. The list provides the means  to contact others between meetings for support or simple social enjoyment. In addition, through emails members receive resources , announcements of events or services related to low vision, and are provided with tips and tactics on many devices which can help them with personal empowerment.

 

Publications in accessible format are sent to members by the Council of Citizens with Low Vision International, the American council of the Blind, and the Pennsylvania Council of the Blind.

 

In addition, joining DVCCLV comes with a full membership  to the Council of Citizens with Low Vision International and the American Council of the Blind.
