😂 Happy International Joke Day from the Pennsylvania Council of the Blind!
Laughter has a way of bringing people together. In the blindness and low vision community, humor often comes from shared experiences, friendships, and those unforgettable “you had to be there” moments.
Today, we invite you to share a clean joke or funny story in the comments.
Let’s celebrate connection, community, and a good laugh!

We celebrated important moments, shared info, amplified the experiences of people who are blind & continued working toward greater accessibility across PA.
Thank you to everyone who joined us!
As July begins, we look forward to new opportunities to continue building a more accessible future together.

It is of great concern that Vision Australia, the main blindness organization here in Australia, is ceasing services in Western Australia and closing their Ringwood office in Victoria. One wonders why they are taking such actions; is it a financial problem, or perhaps a lack of staff? Also of concern is the lack of transparency; as far as I can see, clients have not been consulted on these matters.
From a neuroleadership perspective, such actions without open communication can be detrimental. Transparency and inclusion are essential for maintaining trust and engagement within a community. Neglecting to involve clients in significant decisions undermines their sense of belonging and can negatively impact their well-being.
