Iowa Department for the Blind
Living With Vision Loss (music)
Narrator: Iowa is unique among rehabilitation programs
throughout the country in one very important way.
And that is, the Iowa Department for the Blind
truly believes in the ability of blind people
to live normal, active, productive lives.
Student: This is the most wonderful program
if you want to continue to live every day the rest of your life.
Student: I'm sure, absolutely sure that I can be totally independent.
Student: I believe that I will be a better person because of this department.
Student: With my old job, I was saving other people's lives.
You know, I really was, physically saving their lives.
And I guess here, this is for me.
I'm saving my own life by being here.
