At The Chicago Lighthouse, people who are blind, visually impaired, disabled and Veterans get the education, job training, and lifelong support to build real skills, live independently, and see who they can become. This is what human potential looks like when the right people are in your corner.

Descriptive Text:
A fast-paced montage shows people of different ages, races, and abilities learning, working, and enjoying family and community life. A young girl navigates a colorful playground with a white cane as the words “A film about human potential” appear with Braille dots beneath them. Assistive technology magnifies text on computer screens; a monitor displays the word “better,” changing from white to green. A smiling woman works at a computer. Hands hold a flowering plant with exposed roots, followed by a smiling man wearing Army apparel. A clinician holds up an eye chart, and a woman smiles while using a virtual-reality headset. Parents laugh while holding their two young children.
A woman descends stairs beside a black guide dog. At a desk decorated with military memorabilia, a Chicago Lighthouse staff member meets with an older man. Workers use hand tools and an air-powered tool to assemble materials. An adult helps a young boy explore a tactile activity board. In a hallway, a man using a white cane walks beside a woman who uses a wheelchair. An older woman makes a bed. In a busy call center, employees wearing headsets work, smile, and talk at their computers. A yellow Labrador guide dog walks along a sidewalk. Back at the playground, a woman supports a laughing girl at the bottom of an orange slide. The girl’s family laughs together at home. Outdoors, a smiling woman wearing a black eye covering and a Chicago Cubs jersey swings a baseball bat.
The Chicago Lighthouse logo fades in, then appears over the Chicago skyline at a red-orange sunset. Final on-screen text reads: “The Chicago Lighthouse — Lighting Up Human Potential.”
