I think the Orientation and Adjustment Center is much more in keeping to 
what the Center does. Rehab to me has the connotation of a treatment 
facility for drug abusers.

RJ,
The name has changed it used to be Rehabilitation Center for the Blind
, then The Orientation and Adjustment Center, and now Rehabilitation
Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired.
See RJ there is a difference, some people who are blind don't think
the center is the place for them because it is for blind people. Now
everyone will know that if you are visually impaired you can come to
the center too.
