Friendship, creativity, and advocacy in action! Miami Lighthouse's Senior Group Activities (SGA) participants welcomed the return of student volunteers from The Jewish Leadership Academy (JLA) to join in on the creativity during art class at SGA's final session this term. 🙌
Together, guided by the art teacher’s instructions, students and seniors worked side by side crafting handmade keychains and sharing stories. The keychains were crafted in the shape of the white cane, a tool and symbol of independence, confidence, and capability for individuals with blindness or low vision. 🎨🦯
Our goal with SGA is to create an environment for our senior participants to age with dignity and confidence, surrounded by a supportive community. Student volunteer visits like these are a resonant reminder that when generations come together, we can create more than art, we create community. 💙
Together, we prove it's possible to see without sight! 🙌🕶️ #MiamiLighthouse #JewishLeadershipAcademy

September is Healthy Aging Month, and here at Miami Lighthouse for the Blind, in our Senior Group Activities (SGA) program, our senior participants age with dignity and confidence, surrounded by a supportive community. These moments from last week's SGA talent show are a perfect example of the vibrant inclusivity here at Miami Lighthouse. 👏👏
Pictured, SGA participants show off their skills in music and dance with the support of Daliany Camacho, our Senior Group and Health Activities Manager, Aaron Hill, Supervisor of Fine Arts & Art Education, and Jose Gonzalez, Senior Group Activity Instructor, along with Lion Gutty with her fellow Lions Club members of Miami. 🪇🕺

Last week, the Lions for the Blind sponsored a field trip to Bird Bowl Bowling Center for our Senior Group Activities (SGA) participants. With almost 40 of our senior clients attending, this was one of our most popular field trips! 🎳
On the field trip, senior program participants who are visually impaired and blind were guided by Lions Club members and Bird Bowl staff to play a fun and competitive game with one another, with everyone getting a chance to have a hands-on bowling experience and roll the ball. #Accessibility #Inclusion
Our monthly SGA field trips are a blast, giving clients a chance socialize and create community, while experiencing a world that is inclusive and supportive of their disability.
Did you know? Our SGA program is the only program in Miami-Dade County that provides essential vision rehabilitation services and independent living skills for adults aged 55 and older who are blind or visually impaired. Going far beyond mitigating against the impacts of one specific disability, our SGA program provides resources for rebuilding skills, fostering confidence, and creating a community.
SGA provides meticulously designed therapies that empower seniors to live with dignity and confidence. For example, on any given day at Miami Lighthouse for the Blind, you might find a group of SGA seniors working with clay, using their hands while actively re-learning the fine motor skills that are essential for reading Braille, while in another room, a grandmother learns to use a screen reader that allows her to email her grandchildren for the first time in years.
