HEALTH AND CHILDREN'S DEPARTMENT
SPECIAL PARENTING INSTRUCTION
Touched By
Blindness
It is Blindness
Support Services (BSS) objective to present information and ideas to
licensed childcare facilities that will enable them to integrate children
with visual impairments or blindness into their programs. It is a known fact that children with
visual impairments or blindness can function in a setting with children who
do not have these impairments.
BSS specializes
in providing ideas for each child care center within a facility and how
they can be enhanced to include the blind and visually impaired. In
addition, BSS is able to share ideas that will enable the children to gain
independence with the use of every day items. Overall, the goal is to equip every child
care facility, its staff and child care providers with the capability of
serving children with visual impairments from all of our communities.
Funded through a
grant from the Riverside
County First 5
Commission, BSS can provide Certificates of Accomplishment to those
individuals and organizations that complete this specialized training
