About CCVI
We strive to empower visually impaired children to reach their highest potential in the sighted world. By providing an atmosphere rich in diverse experiences, focused on potential rather than limitations, we prepare our children for continued success long after they transition out of CCVI and into their home school districts. Educating parents about their child's visual issues is a priority and is done on an individual basis as well as through group meetings.
Our staff is made up of vision-certified teachers, braille instructors, orientation and mobility specialists and therapists. Their experience in the field of vision provides expertise in planning, developing and implementing education programs that address all aspects of the child’s development. We incorporate assistive technology to facilitate success and include a variety of real-life experiences designed to increase independence and develop self-confidence. We emphasize early literacy through print and braille instruction and independent travel through orientation and mobility instruction.
