The Northwest Association for Blind Athletes is a nonprofit organization based in Vancouver, Washington, focused on expanding life-changing opportunities through sport and physical activity for people who are blind or visually impaired. It operates across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana, delivering five programs to a combined group of more than 1,900 children, youth, adults, and military veterans with visual impairments. The organization aims to improve access to adaptive sports and recreation for its target population. Within the nonprofit and disability services sector, NWABA supports inclusion by enabling participation in sport for people who are blind or visually impaired. In 2024 the organization expanded its offices to Idaho, extending its geographic reach, and in 2026 it hosted the Oregon State Track Meet for youth who are blind and visually impaired.
