Meet the Facilitator 

Virtual Support Group for Teens with Vision Loss

Daria Zawadzki is a licensed clinical social worker and mom of two teenagers who understands how important it is for teens to have a place where they can be themselves. Diagnosed at age 17 with a disease that led to blindness, Daria brings both lived experience and professional expertise. She creates a welcoming, judgment-free environment where teens feel heard, supported, and empowered. 

What Teens Are Saying

Finding Community

I think after I started participating in the calls, they really gave me a sense of community."

Sydney

Building Lasting Friendships

I'm really happy that we met too, and she is one of my best friends. Even though we live thousands of miles away from each other, she is one of my best friends."
