Outreach

The Blind Children’s Learning Center is an amazing place for blind, visually impaired and deaf/blind children and their families. We continue to provide services and support after the students graduate from our Pre-Kindergarten program and move in to their local public schools.

The Outreach program provides services to blind and visually impaired students in the public school system when school districts are unable to provide these services. Our services are provided by credentialed teachers in the areas of Braille instruction, low vision services and Orientation and Mobility (i.e., cane travel, safety).

Our multi-credentialed teachers work with visually impaired and blind students providing vision assessments, participation in students' Individual Educational Plan (IEP), direct service instruction including Braille and computer skills, adapting materials, ordering large print, Braille materials, books on tape and CD's and use of assistive devices such as an abacus and CCTV. The services our teachers provide are based upon each student's IEP goals and objectives.

Youth Services programs enhance the academic and social growth of BCLC's students.
