Our outreach program gives back to the community by educating our future teachers, discussing the issues and concerns of teaching a child with little or no vision within the classroom.
The program informs teachers how to refine learning systems and techniques that will mainstream children into today’s complex society. The foundation also purchases computers and software for schools of special education students, to ensure that children who are visually impaired or blind are exposed to the latest computer technology at an early age to maximize their chances for a better future. Each of the following schools offers a variety of programs and services to meet the needs of your child.
