Our Mission
The mission of The Center for the Partially Sighted is to promote independent living for people of all ages with impaired sight.
Funding and Service Fees
The Center is a 501 (c) 3 agency (Fed Tax ID #95-3771974), governed by a 20-member Board of Directors. Funding for the Center comes from foundations and corporations, individual donations, service fees, the California Department of Rehabilitation, the City of Santa Monica, and Beach Cities Health District. For information about making a donation, please see How to Help Us.
Service fees are on a sliding scale based on ability to pay. The Center is a participating provider of Medicare, Medi-Cal, and the California Department of Rehabilitation. These programs may cover a portion of the services provided by the Center. There is no charge for many of our rehabilitation services. Project VIP provides low-cost or no-cost vision rehabilitation services for people who are low-income or under-insured. Call Audrey Valenzuela at (310) 988-1970, for eligibility requirements.
