The mission of the New York State Resource Center for Visually
Impaired is to provide assistance to support students who are blind and visually impaired
in achieving high standards of learning and independence.
A Certified Teacher of the Visually Impaired/Orientation and
Mobility Specialist is on staff to discuss instructional
strategies, specific eye diseases and many other topics with teachers and other service
providers, parents and family members who need to know about blindness and visual
impairment. Professional services include training and consultation.
Resource Center patrons can also take advantage of the special
library, which circulates large print literature, adapted assessments and
curricula, descriptive (voice captioned) videos for students, educational videos,
professional reference materials regarding students who are blind and
visually impaired, including those with multiple disabilities.
Specialized instructional materials manufactured by the American
Printing House for the Blind are provided free of charge to students
registered with the Resource Center as legally blind through the Federal
Quota program.
