The target audience for discussions and activities is providers at day and residential programs, families/guardians, clinical support staff and services coordinators. The meeting place is accessible.
 
Many adults with legal blindness who participate in day habilitation or prevocational programs qualify for free products from the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) catalog every year.  Find out who qualifies, how registration works, and what kind of things are available.
 
If you already work with individuals who are enrolled with APH, here's your opportunity to actually see many of the products available in the APH catalog and learn creative ways to implement them into day or residential programs.
