September Support Groups & Workshops at VIPS

Join us in September for our support groups, workshops, and accessibility resources! Spots are limited for some classes, so be sure to contact Cathy to reserve your spot.

All classes and support groups are held at 1409 H Street in Modesto, unless otherwise noted.

📚 Need Help Reading Your Mail, Books, or Other Materials?

Try one of our CCTVs!

A CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) is an electronic assistive device that uses a camera to enlarge and display text, images, and other objects on a screen, making them easier to see.

Our CCTV Reading Room will be open for one hour immediately following each Modesto support group and the YIB Support Group. Come by and try out the equipment, read your mail, or work with materials that are difficult to see at home.
