Our Vision & Mission
The Center for the Blind is the General Council of the Assemblies of God ministry to the Blind under the auspices of Assemblies of God Home Missions - Intercultural Ministries. We are the parent ministry for the Whitney Library for the Blind and the Adriene Resource Center for Blind Children. This is a "faith based ministry" that has to raise its own support. You can make a contribution to NCB by mail or online. Read our vision and mission statements below.
