It is an honor to provide you with<br />
<strong>the</strong> annual report <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> year<br />
ending June 30, 2007 - a celebration<br />
of <strong>the</strong> achievements of students,<br />
graduates and staff of <strong>the</strong> Florida<br />
Lions <strong>Conklin</strong> <strong>Center</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Blind</strong>.<br />
The <strong>Center</strong>’s students, who are<br />
blind and have at least one<br />
additional disability, face seemingly<br />
overwhelming challenges. To<br />
achieve <strong>the</strong>ir goal of becoming selfreliant,<br />
fully participating members<br />
of <strong>the</strong> community, <strong>the</strong>y come to <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Conklin</strong> <strong>Center</strong> from throughout <strong>the</strong><br />
state of Florida. Since its inception<br />
in 1979, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Center</strong> remains <strong>the</strong><br />
only facility that can provide -<br />
under one roof - an array of<br />
training options to meet <strong>the</strong> highly<br />
specialized needs of <strong>the</strong>se<br />
significantly disabled individuals.<br />
During fiscal year 2007, as it has<br />
every five years since 1979, <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Center</strong> completed a self-evaluation<br />
<strong>for</strong> renewal of its accreditation by<br />
NAC – <strong>the</strong> National Accreditation<br />
Council <strong>for</strong> Agencies Serving<br />
People with <strong>Blind</strong>ness or Visual<br />
Impairment. In its final report, <strong>the</strong><br />
NAC team (experts in <strong>the</strong> field of<br />
blindness training) affirmed some<br />
of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Conklin</strong> <strong>Center</strong>’s strengths:<br />
“Services provided by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Conklin</strong><br />
<strong>Center</strong> to people with blindness and<br />
additional disabilities are unique<br />
and can be viewed as a model in<br />
FLORIDA LIONS<br />
<strong>the</strong> field of vision rehabilitation.”<br />
And “<strong>the</strong> organization is highly<br />
effective with <strong>the</strong> placement of<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir clients into <strong>the</strong>ir maximum<br />
level of employment, and in placing<br />
clients into <strong>the</strong> community at<br />
competitive wages.”<br />
The NAC team also made several<br />
recommendations to improve<br />
services. The most pressing is to<br />
hire an additional, qualified teacher<br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> Infant and Preschool<br />
program to reduce <strong>the</strong> work load of<br />
<strong>the</strong> current staff. The current staff<br />
consists of one Early Intervention<br />
Specialist who provided services to<br />
46 children who are blind and 65 of<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir family members last year.<br />
This will be one of our goals <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
coming year. With <strong>the</strong> support of<br />
dedicated staff and volunteers and<br />
friends in <strong>the</strong> community we remain<br />
committed to helping multi-disabled<br />
children and adults work hard to<br />
achieve <strong>the</strong>ir potential.<br />
Robert T. Kelly<br />
Executive Director<br />
FOR THE BLIND
who we served<br />
To help children and adults who are blind and have additional<br />
disabilities develop <strong>the</strong>ir potential <strong>for</strong> independence and participate<br />
fully in community life as productive, contributing citizens.<br />
Our vision is to reduce or eliminate dependence on institutional or<br />
homebound care.<br />

jennifer’s story<br />
Jennifer was 21 when came to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Conklin</strong> <strong>Center</strong> from<br />
Broward County. At age 12, she had lost her vision and<br />
sustained a significant brain injury due to a tragic automobile<br />
accident that also resulted in <strong>the</strong> death of her mo<strong>the</strong>r. When she<br />
first arrived at <strong>the</strong> <strong>Center</strong> a few years ago, Jennifer was living with<br />
her aging grandparents who were fearful about what would happen<br />
to her when <strong>the</strong>y were no longer able to care <strong>for</strong> her. Placement in<br />
a 24-hour care facility seemed like <strong>the</strong> only option.<br />
For Jennifer, living with a brain injury means <strong>the</strong> lack of short<br />
term memory and difficulty making decisions. She has some<br />
vision, but needs substantial help to be able to read.<br />
Jennifer successfully completed <strong>the</strong> <strong>Center</strong>’s independent living<br />
training program and today, she is proud to live in an apartment of<br />
her own.<br />
She continues to see one of our Supported Living Coaches who<br />
helps her twice a week with managing her finances and keeping<br />
track of cleaning and shopping routines. She maintains a very<br />
active social life on her own, using <strong>the</strong> public bus system to travel<br />
around town.<br />

ADULT BASIC EDUCATION<br />
Instruction in Braille, sign language, cooking, shoping, money<br />
management, keyboarding, and computers is offered<br />
depending on each students need.<br />
VOCATIONAL EVALUATION AND TRAINING<br />
Job training begins in our workshop where students prepare<br />
<strong>for</strong> competitive employment. For many of our adult students,<br />
this is <strong>the</strong>ir first work experience. While learning how to do<br />
different types of work, such as preparing <strong>the</strong> <strong>Center</strong>’s<br />
mailings or packaging small automotive parts, <strong>the</strong>y are also<br />
learning important skills such as communication skills, work<br />
ethics and how to handle a dispute. Earnings from <strong>the</strong><br />
workshop are used to teach money management.<br />
EARLY INTERVENTION<br />
The Early Intervention Program prepares children who are blind to enter<br />
public schools ready to learn alongside our non-disabled children, and<br />
to participate in all of <strong>the</strong> childhood experiences that help build confident<br />
and competent adults. To achieve this, we provide individualized training<br />
and support to families so that <strong>the</strong>y can create an enriching home<br />
environment <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir blind children.<br />
At our residential training center in Daytona Beach, adult students from throughout Florida,<br />
who are blind and have at least one additional disability, learn <strong>the</strong> skills necessary to care <strong>for</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong>mselves and <strong>the</strong>ir household.<br />
ORIENTATION AND MOBILITY<br />
Students learn how to travel safely in <strong>the</strong> community using <strong>the</strong><br />
familiar white cane, basic protective and trailing techniques,<br />
using a sighted guide, and using public transportation.
SUPPORTED LIVING Coaches assist graduates in <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
apartments with everyday activities depending on <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
needs. For some graduates, regular help with shopping,<br />
money management, housecleaning, reading <strong>the</strong> mail<br />
enables <strong>the</strong> graduate to maintain <strong>the</strong> independent lifestyle<br />
