Visit Our Website

We are the only nonprofit solely dedicated to supporting blind and visually impaired youth from age 2 to age 22 in the state of Nevada.  Nevada is currently one of seven states that does not have a school for the blind.  (Other states include Alaska, Iowa, Maine, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Wyoming). As of June 2019, Governor Sisolak signed S.B 528 (section 14) to provide state funding to support blind and visually impaired (BVI) students here at NBCF.  We are working towards opening the Children’s Learning Center to support a preschool and day care for BVI students and their sighted siblings.
