Since 1975, the agency has been located in the Robert Morris Building at 919 Walnut Street in Center City, Philadelphia, along with the Regional Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped of the Free Library of Philadelphia. ==History==
On November 30, 1983, three agencies – the Information Center for the Blind, the Nevil Institute for Rehabilitation and Service and Volunteer Services for the Blind – merged to form Associated Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired. A lineage that began in 1874 with the Pennsylvania Working Home for Blind Men is today the largest non-profit organization in southeastern Pennsylvania serving the blind and visually impaired.
