Honestly I am baffled by how horrible this place is. Helped a friend move her mom in there, which was almost a 10 hour drive for us, only for them to turn around and tell us her mom can't live there based off her medications- even though they originally cleared her. On top of that, they gave us little to no warning for having to go pick her up and move her back out. I expected more. Would give the place 0 stars but I have to put 1 to post this review.

Absolutely wonderful place to get training. What is a student here back in 2011. I also worked here for about three years. All of the instructors are excellent. You will leave here having a much better attitude toward your blindness. The skills you will learn in orientation and mobility, braille and technology, cooking and home management, and industrial arts will benefit you the rest of your life. I recommend anybody who has questions about blindness to stop in.
