Parents and Their Infants with Visual Impairments

Parents are the most critical members of an early intervention team!

PAIVI (Parents and Their Infants with Visual Impairments, 2nd Edition), written by Deborah Chen, Gail Calvello and Clare Taylor Friedman, is an updated version of the original Parents and Visually Impaired Infants (PAVII).

This set of materials is designed to help parents and teachers of infants (Birth to Three) who are visually impaired become involved as primary members of the intervention team.  The original materials (PAVII) were created as a part of a 3-year project of  Blind Babies Foundation with support from the U.S. Department of Education.
