The Hatlen Center for the Blind

http://www.hcblind.org/
The Hatlen Center for the Blind (originally the Living Skills Center for the Visually Impaired) was founded in 1972 by Dr. Philip Hatlen. In the 1970′s, thousands of children blinded by an epidemic of Retinopathy of Prematurity were graduating from high school. At the time, rehabilitation counselors, social workers, and others involved in services for adults who are blind had serious concerns about what was to become of these young people and how they could best be helped.
