[Trainer-Talk] Question

Fri Oct 13 14:24:24 UTC 2017

This is good information, and while I have not looked at the directory yet --I would venture a guess that it shouldn't be regarded as complete.  Traditionally RESNA has seemed to be more involved with those with physical disabilities -- and most people in the blindness field haven't had much to do with it.  Not a criticism -- just an observation.
 On an unrelated topic -- I see you live in Ewing.  I used to do so -- worked for the New Jersey Library for the Blind in mid-80's -- used to be able to walk to work -- even close enough to go home for lunch.

On the RESNA.Org<http://RESNA.Org> website, under  Certification, there is a certified professionals directory. Within that, there is a search where you can specify their specialty, and Vision is a choice. I believe you can also specify a location.

Christine,

First, I'm not aware of such a Web site listing adaptive equipment trainers but that doesn't mean that such a site does not exist and so we'll see if anybody else knows of one. Back around the year 2000, the National Braille Press produced a book called "One on One", which was, essentially, a directory of various a.t. trainers, along with a description of what they teach and how much they charge for services. While that book is likely very much out of date, having a searchable Web site with similar information is a fabulous idea. If I had more time I would seriously consider such a project but it's just not something I'm able to do at this time. It's a fabulous idea.

Hello All,

Does anyone know of a website where I can get a list of assistive technology trainers listed by state who work with the blind and visually impaired if so, what is that website address?

I would appreciate any information that you may be able to provide in this matter.

Thank you for your time regarding this matter.
