The Crafters Program is a
statewide program. Individuals who are blind and visually
impaired make all the gifts and craft sold. 100%
of the proceeds of sales with the exception if materials was supplied
to make the craft-material cost will be deducted. There are
currently 45 crafters statewide.
If you know someone who lives with a serious vision loss, call the
Crafters Association of the Blind and Visually Impaired at (201)
997-6155 for information on how we can help. No previous experience in
making crafts is necessary. We come to your home and provide
instruction on making a saleable product. This instruction is provided
at no cost to you, thanks to funding support from the New Jersey
Department of Human Services, Commission for the Blind and Visually
Impaired.
