The Aziz Jehan Begum Trust for the Blind aims to develop services which will:
Supplement the existing facilities.
Reach out to the large mass of the Visually handicapped who have remained outside the purview of existing facilities, especially the youth who are still in the educable age.
Provide educational, vocational training and job placement support and to expand employment opportunities.
Identify the job which the blind can do with the aid of special devices and those without such aids and thus widen the possibilities of their absorption into non- traditional areas.
Develop recreational and positive leisure-time for all age groups which aim at ‘whole’ personality development.
Create community awareness and motivations to organize community-based vocational and recreational programs for the visually handicapped in the community.
Break down rigid societal attitudes, prejudices and perceptions towards visually handicapped persons, whether they be children. Adolescents, adults or senior citizens, male or female.
