What we do
The CVI Center
We’re urgently confronting the world’s leading cause of childhood blindness and low vision.
The time is now to confront Cerebral/Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI) — because we know we can help children with CVI learn to access their world and define their success with timely diagnosis, targeted interventions, trained teachers, and effective services and education.
We are boldly addressing the CVI crisis through education, innovation, and collaboration. Our approach is research-based and whole-child-focused.
