About Christian Record Services

Mission Statement

Christian Record Services provides free Christian publications and programs for people with visual impairments.

Goal

The goal of the many volunteers, employees, and trustees of Christian Record Services is to reach every blind or visually impaired person in North America with our free Christian publications and services.

Christian Record Services provides new opportunities for persons who are blind or visually impaired. Each year approximately 100,000 blind people's lives are changed by services we provide to them without cost. All who are blind, legally blind (20/200 with corrective lenses), or have physical impairments that prevent them from holding reading material are eligible for the following free services:

• Subscription Magazines are available in braille, large print, and audio cassette.
• Full-Vision Books combine braille and print, enabling blind parents to read to their sighted children and sighted parents help their blind children learn to read braille.
• The Lending Library lends more than 2,000 volumes in braille and audio cassette.
• Gift Bibles and Study Guides are available in braille, large print, and audio cassette.
• National Camps for Blind Children are operated throughout North America.
• Scholarship Assistance is given on a limited basis to blind young people trying to obtain a college education.

Christian Record Services is an international organization serving blind and visually impaired individuals in approximately 80 countries worldwide and employs about 160 people throughout the United States and Canada.
