[Pibe-division] A career question

[Dr. Denise M. Robinson]

Melissa,
 
I got my early childhood education from Western Michigan University with an endorsement in pre-primary impairment. I do what Kristen explained also. There is a great deal to do with blind and low vision babies to get them ready for school.

Melissa, 
I am a teacher of blind students in Louisiana. I work in the school district with students ages 3-21 and all developmental levels. I have also worked with a program called Early Steps which is a program for infants and toddlers where you go into the home and work with the children and parents. I love doing both, I have always enjoyed working with families and little bitty babies but I get a rush from seeing the progress of the older kids in the school. By the way I got my certification from Louisiana Tech.

Hello.

I am researching my options for a masters in early childhood special education.
What are some of the careers that one can specialize in that focuses on working with blind/vi children from birth to age eight?
What kind of advocate positions are there?
If there are people on this list that are either advocates, for families, or work with blind/vi children birth to age eight.
What advice would you give me?
Thanks.

Have a blessed day.
Sincerely,
Melissa R. Green
You must learn from the mistakes of others. You can't possibly live long enough to make them all yourself.
