In recognition of White Cane Awareness Day (October 15), a group of SCCB consumers will participate in a scavenger hunt on the State House grounds in Columbia, SC on Monday, October 14.
This is a great opportunity to increase understanding of orientation and mobility tools and recognize how they assist individuals who are blind and visually impaired in living and working independently.
An SCCB O&M instructor will be present to demonstrate how a white cane is used, the different types of canes and cane tips, and provide information about SCCB services.
Thanks to Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired South Carolina and National Federation of the Blind of South Carolina for assisting with this event!
When: October 14, 1:30 pm – 3:30 pm
Where: State House grounds, Columbia, SC
