Inform. Connect. Empower.

Blind Citizens Australia (BCA) is the national representative organisation of people who are blind or vision impaired.

Our purpose is to inform, connect, and empower Australians who are blind or vision impaired and the broader community.

BCA acknowledge the traditional owners of the land where we work and live. We pay our respects to elders past, present, and emerging and celebrate their stories, culture and traditions.
