For many of the children we work with, including Greer, cortical visual impairment (CVI) makes it harder to process visual information which can also make it harder to feel safe in your own body and space. But today, Greer learned how to push through her legs in standing and play with it in the Universal Exercise Unit (UEU). How wonderful it must feel to embody your space and feel safe within it. Thank you to @tamcreative_ for capturing it so beautifully @little_g_big_world for Greer #CerebralPa

Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI) is the new leading cause of blindness for children born in the United States. Our video highlights the problems that can arise raising a child with CVI, and what Perkins can do to help. Learn more at Perkins.org/CVI | Perkins School for the Blind
