Wolffe, Karen E.

Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v97 n10 p1-28 Oct 2003

A survey of 38 public and 58 private agencies found the most common rehabilitative services provided to consumers with visual impairment in 1999 were assistive technology evaluations and individual or group technologies training. Both public and private agencies had more difficulty recruiting than retaining staff to provide technology-related training services. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
