VIDBE-Q 2026 Volume 71 Issue 1
wish to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entities and individuals who support
state and federally funded programs in the field of low vision and blindness. Their
commitment has enabled educators like me to break new ground and expand our
capabilities to meet the evolving needs of every student. The skills I acquired are a
direct result of these crucial programs, and I will be forever grateful for the doors
they have opened for me. For those who are eager to make a meaningful
difference, I encourage you to explore state and federally funded programs. These
initiatives provide not only financial support but also the advanced training and
community connection necessary to create transformative educational experiences.
The experiences, skills, and insights gained through the Shawnee State University
Intervention Specialist: Visually Impaired Teacher Licensure Program have not
only enriched my professional life but will also have a lasting impact on the lives
of my students.
