Education Of Blind Children
Education Of Blind Children
The passage of Public Law 94-142, the Education of All Handicapped Children Act, established certain rights and protections for blind children and their parents. Blind children are now entitled to a free public education in the "least restrictive environment," and parents have the right to help plan their child's educational program. Contact us for more information about the education of blind children, parent organizations, newsletters, etc. Also, the national Federation of the Blind publishes a magazine for parents of blind children. This publication provides information and insights into all aspects of raising blind children from infancy to adulthood. A free subscription is available to parents or other interested persons by writing to: Future Reflections, National Federation of the Blind, free Subscription Request, 1800 Johnson Street, Baltimore, MD 21230.
