Thank you to approximately 400 people who joined us for our first MCB Virtual Town Hall as we work together to build a community of support for people who are blind and visually impaired across the Commonwealth during the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope our service updates and resources help you and your families as we all navigate a new normal during these challenging times.
