recently published Welcoming Students with Visual Impairment to Your School: A
guide for training public school personnel and families about the needs of
students with vision loss. These multi-media modules, funded by a grant from
The Gibney Family Foundation, have been developed to provide vision
professionals with a user-friendly resource for sharing information about
students with visual impairment. The topics covered are an overview about
visual impairment; social implications of vision loss, orientation and mobility
and low vision. The grant enables <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Perkins</st1:PlaceName>
