February marks Black History Month in Canada. Black history includes the stories of people with disabilities. Leaders, artists, and advocates with sight loss who shaped culture and justice. Read our blog celebrating Black trailblazers with sight loss: www.cnib.ca/en/blog/cele... #BHM26 #CNIB

Your hands 👋 snap, swipe, and wave, and now they can support braille literacy! From Jan 15–Feb 15, visit any @thetenspot location and get a braille manicure. A bold, tactile way to raise awareness and help ensure everyone has the chance to read. 💛💅

Only a handful of warm days left in Toronto, I suspect! Took advantage of the nice weather today to check out @cnibfoundation.bsky.social's Fragrant Garden. Grateful to the CNIB for their help with family in recent years. That & my own visual issues have made me more aware of visual accessiblity.

Black and yellow sign with text saying Fragrant Garden and an arrow pointing left, surrounded by trees and plants. There is raised Braille along the bottom of the sign.

July is Disability Pride Month, and we're celebrating the incredible contributions, voices, and experiences of disabled LGBT+ people. We will be marking this month by sharing content that uplifts and educates, starting with the story behind the Disability Pride Flag and the meaning of its colours.

This image has a dark grey background with five coloured stripes.
Red: Physical Disabilities, Gold: Neurodiversity, White: Non-visible and Undiagnosed Disabilities, Blue: Emotional and Psychiatric Disabilities, Green: Sensory Disabilities. The white text reads: Disability Pride Month 2025.

🌈 Pride is about visibility, celebration, and creating space for everyone to thrive. This year, we’re excited to partner with Pride at Work Canada to help build safer, more equitable workplaces across the country. #CNIBPride #PrideSeason #PrideAtWorkCanada #2SLGBTQI+

A yellow text box reads: “CNIB has partnered with Pride at Work Canada to support inclusive workplaces for 2SLGBTQI+ communities.” Below, a white box says: “Pride at Work Canada offers learning tools and programs that explore 2SLGBTQI+ inclusion and connect professionals and allies nationwide.”

People's assumptions about us are often our biggest barrier to independence and participation. That we can't hold down a job, for example, or have a family. We need everyone to see the person, not the sight loss. Learn about challenging misconceptions: rnib.org.uk/SeeThePerson

🍁 A Stronger Canada Includes Everyone! #NationalAccessAbilityWeek is a chance to recognize the vital contributions of Canadians with disabilities and commit to breaking down the barriers that still exist. When we remove barriers, we build a stronger Canada.

Vision loss is often preventable — but only if caught early. Eye exams can detect signs of diabetes, high blood pressure & more. Don’t wait. Make eye care a lifelong habit. 🔗 Learn more: www.cnib.ca/en/resources... #VisionHealthMonth

On a yellow background, text reads: "Vision Health Month". The text is designed to resemble a Snellen chart and is placed over an icon of an eye.

Did you know that you can set up a reminder to add alt text on BlueSky? Just go to Settings, then Accessibility and make sure "Require alt text before posting" is toggled on - it’s a handy way to make sure you never forget, and it helps blind and partially sighted people to enjoy your posts!
