Description of CE Program/Activity
 Addressing social skills is a required component of the Expanded Core Curriculum (ECC) for individuals who are visually impaired. In this workshop, the presenter will share strategies and techniques to best facilitate social development for young children who are diagnosed with Cortical/Cerebral Visual Impairment (CVI). The presenter will address areas of consideration, including the implications of CVI as it relates to common difficulties with attention to faces, facial recognition, understanding facial expressions, and body language.
