Watch the recording for “Learn, Earn, and Prosper (LEAP): Opportunities for Blind and Visually Impaired Youth in Vermont” here.

LEAP has something for everyone! Join us to hear about the variety of options for work experiences and personal-professional development for blind and visually impaired youth throughout the state.

We’ll cover the process of referrals and applications to join programs; our variety of virtual and in person opportunities; how our work experiences, retreats, residential programming, and skill-based workshops work; and how different students and abilities benefit from different options.

A small panel of our LEAP students will join us to tell their own stories and speak to the relationships and learning they gained from their LEAP experiences.

Presenters:

• Sarah Kirby, LEAP Program Coordinator
• Hannah Peach, LEAP Virtual Program Developer
• Taya Tarr, Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor with the VT Division for the Blind and Visually Impaired
