Welcome to the Spring 2014 issues of DVIQ entitled "Highlights from Convention." I
am honored for the opportunity to take over as editor of DVIQ. This is an amazing opportunity
to share what those in the field of Visual Impairments (VI) and Deafblindness (DB) are doing
around the country and the world. If you are interested in getting involved in the DVI-Q
committee or have articles or advertisements please contact me.
This issue of DVIQ will contain articles that highlight this years Council for Exceptional
Children Convention and Expo that was held in Philadelphia, PA on April 9-12, 2014. The
authors of the articles will share insights and look back on important events from the
convention, such as award winners, student perspectives, presentations, and a School for the
Blind piece.
