The professionals at the Northshore Education Consortium provide vision and mobility services in the Northeast region. They teach students with visual impairments including those with multiple disabilities in the skills essential for their participation and access the curriculum.  These services include the use of functional vision, curriculum accommodations, Braille, and assistive technology and all areas of the expanded core curriculum.
