We had a great start to our Youth Summer Days programming with Tech Saturday at our Silver Spring service center's Assistive Technology (AT) lab.
We met new families, toured the AT Lab, heard from CLB’s partner, , and enjoyed an amazing afternoon together.
We have more Summer Days’ programming for students this summer! Email [email protected] for additional information!

Even the smallest hours can change someone's life. Joan began volunteering with CLB while working full-time. She sorts mail, helps with errands, and small tasks — but what she's really given is something much bigger: a sense of control and connection to someone who needs it most.
Her advice to anyone on the fence? "In the very small hours, even if you work full-time, you can make a big difference in the life of someone who really needs your help." If you've got a few hours to spare, someone in your community could use them.
Message us to learn more about how you can volunteer!
