Ronald Boyd

“I am a 60 year old retired manager of a sterile processing department. I’ve been in Arizona for 5 years. I’ve been at Saavi Services for the Blind in the Comprehensive Day Program for 7 months. My ultimate job goal is to have a food truck of my own. I’ve worked on food trucks before with my friends and I have decided to buy one. In order for me to achieve those goals I figured I should go through the CDP Program along with Saavi. I’m at Saavi to learn the skills I need to sustain a business. My own business. That’s why I’m here and I’m on my way, I hope, to achieving my goals.”

What We Do

SAAVI Services for the Blind specializes in non-visual training for Adults, young adults, teens and children across Arizona who are blind or have low vision. It is our motto and belief to expect more of our students. High expectations mean high achievements for program participants. We expect more of our students, and in turn they set high expectations for themselves.

Thus, achieving more and becoming more.

Why it Matters

Blindness happens differently for everyone:
sometimes it occurs early in life. Sometimes it happens gradually over time. Sometimes it happens quickly and unexpectedly. Blindness can develop anytime, anywhere, to anyone.

When it does, Saavi Services for the Blind is there! Through our services, our students gain the confidence and non-visual skills that allow them to live independently, return to the work force, pursue secondary education or begin the path towards a new career. Our training empowers our students to strive for more and helps them realize their own potential so that they internalize that it is not what you can see…

It is what you can do!
