Nebraska - Lincoln to support a nd promote the graduate program for visual impairments.
Over time, Nebraska has greatly increased their number of teachers of the visually
impaired due to this collaboration.
We are very proud of the relationships, collaboration and partnerships that ex ist
between all those who are involved in educating our students in Nebraska. As our state
is large with many miles from east to west, we are fortunate to work with others in more
a "small town" way. There is a strong connection with NCECBVI staff and all of our local
school district administrators, teachers of the visually impaired, and certified and
orientation and mobility specialists. This statewide plan was intended to make
NCECBVI a "go to" resource for many. We have accomplished this in more ways th at
we imagined in 1998. Regardless of the program or service, "Not just a living, but a life"
continues to fit our mission.
