About the Center

In 1988, the founders of The Edith Bishel Center realized that there were no adequate services in the region being offered to people age 55 and over who were blind and visually impaired. This growing, at-risk population was left with few or no resources to help them better function in their daily lives. Individuals who are visually impaired or blind often suffer from feelings of isolation and insignificance, frequently resulting in depression. Founded in 1988 and officially incorporated as a 501c3 non-profit in 1994, the center has been serving our community for 30 years. After her death, the land and funds to build the center were bequeathed by Edith L. Bishel. Today, the center offers programs and services to ALL ages.

The mission of the center is to enrich the independence and quality of life for individuals who are blind and visually impaired.

The Edith Bishel Center currently serves six southeastern Washington counties including Benton, Franklin, Walla Walla, Columbia, Yakima, and Klickitat. We are proud to offer the following services to these communities:


  • Optometric low-vision examinations for children and adults
