In 2025 NJ CBVI’s outreach efforts expanded virtually and in person
reaching over 115 locations statewide. Our 2025 Community Connection Calls
have highlighted providers near and around NJ with informative and valuable
resources to hundreds of individuals, households, and community groups.
CBVI community outreach efforts continue to   impact community members
resulting in enhanced quality of life and enlightening experiences.



Join us in our *Community Reflections* as we observe International People
With Disabilities Day, established in 1982 at the United Nations. Take a
journey in navigating the services of Disability Rights NJ in our *Keynote
Presentation* as we follow the theme of fostering disability inclusive
societies to advance social progress. Unpack how you can access services
from NJ Citizens Action for you or someone you know. Let’s tune in to a
representative of the NFB Independence Market and hear how you or someone
you know can amplify your blindness skills with literature, onsite tours,
web navigation, and demonstrations from the Manager at the NFB Headquarters
Independence Market. And please be sure to spread the word about this call
to your circles of influence.
