Program

 


The NFB Jernigan Institute is pleased to announce the NFB Early Explorers
Program. This program is designed to introduce young blind children (ages
birth to 7) and their families to the long white cane. Through the program
parents will receive the tools, support, and confidence needed to become
their child's first cane travel teacher. Providing children with an early
start to independent movement and travel ensures that children will be more
confident and curious travelers throughout life. Families participating in
the program will receive a free child-sized white cane, Travel Tales (a
quarterly e-newsletter), an informational DVD, and so much
more!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =

To learn more about this exciting program, or to register, please visit

www.nfb.org/earlyexplorers, e-mail earlyexplorers at nfb.org, or call (410)
659-9314, extension 2418. 

 

Help us spread the word about the importance of early movement and cane
travel for young blind children by telling the parents and families you
encounter about the NFB Early Explorers Program!

 

"NFB Early Explorers is made possible in part through a grant from the CVS
Caremark Charitable Trust"
