For visually impaired children, going to school every day can be a challenge if they are not prepared to dress themselves, feed themselves, or wash themselves. Teaching these children can be a challenge for parents.
Mariani, a Georgia-based NGO, as almost finished their translation of Helping Children Who Are Blind, a resource that provides parents, teachers, and other caregivers with the information they need to help young children with visual impairments become self-sufficient and grow up healthy.
Currently this information is not available in Georgian, and so Mariani's translation will make it accessible for parents who do not speak English. Hesperian HealthWiki
