The Georgia Organization of Parents of Blind Children is a division of the NFB of Georgia, and is affiliated with the National Organization of Parents of Blind Children, a national membership organization of parents and friends of blind children reaching out to each other to give vital support, encouragement, and information. We believe the real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of information which exist. With proper training and opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a physical nuisance.
GOPBC exists to help Georgia's blind and visually impaired children. GOPBC members can draw upon the collective knowledge, wisdom, and resources of the real experts on blindness—the organized blind.
