A5: At our Federation training centers and @PDRIB210, we understand that the #LongWhiteCane is a tangible expression of independence. #MeetTheBlind
Today, Kristen Sims & Eric Guillory came to speak to our pre-service teachers in #LATECHEDCI210F19 about assistive tech & how we can best meet the needs of our students. What a treat for all of us!!! Many thanks to the @TheLCB1985 for sending them! @LATechCOE @PDRIB210
