If you need information about O&M or independent mobility for your 
child, WATCH THIS VIDEO!!! It is of Joe Cutter, renowned early 
childhood cane teacher who pioneered the use of the cane with little 
bitty kids and also use of the teaching cane. It includes the history 
of the very first Cane Walk at convention. Joe is now retired :-( .
