We provide early intervention vision services in families' homes and community settings throughout Colorado. 0 0 372725 226881 A Shared Vision's team of licensed Early Intervention Teachers of the Visually Impaired (EI-TVIs) works closely with families - in their homes and community settings - to nurture the strengths of each child and build skills for lifelong success. Our teachers provide educational services that are family focused, strengths based and developmentally appropriate. We are the leading provider of early intervention vision services in the state. Despite unique challenges associated with the ongoing pandemic, A Shared Vision supported 175 children and provided 1,861 education service visits, both in-person and via telehealth, in 2023. Through contracts with 16 of Colorado's 20 Community Centered Boards, we support 56 counties representing 85% of the state's population, both urban and rural. In some of these areas, we are the only provider of vision services especially in rural communities. Years of research have proven that the home and familiar community settings are optimal for the development of children birth to age three. We recognize that caregivers are the critical "first teachers" in these settings. Our programs address the unique challenges and educational needs of caregivers whose children are blind or visually impaired. We educate and empower caregivers with specific strategies so that they may help their children reach developmental milestones. The intended outcome is to ensure that children with blindness or visual impairments are prepared for kindergarten and on a trajectory towards their lifelong success. A Shared Vision's team of 17 licensed and caring Early Intervention Teachers of the Visually Impaired addresses the full spectrum of vision needs, including home-based and natural environment visits, specialty co-visits, hospital visits and consultation services for in-patient children, and support during ophthalmology appointments. They conduct and support Family Assessments, Functional Vision Assessments (FVAs), development of Individual Family Service Plans (IFSP) and transition support from IDEA Part C to Part B. To build a community of highly skilled, collaborative professionals, A Shared Vision also provides transdisciplinary team meetings, professional development trainings and presentations on pediatric blindness and visual impairment, and internship opportunities for students in pursuit of relevant degrees. 0 0 0 372725 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 18 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CO X X X Steven Lindauer 3033491961 5030 Ballarat Lane Castle Rock CO 80108 Steven Lindauer Executive Director 40 X X 65000 0 0 Paula Landry EI Teacher of the Visually Impaired 30 0 X X 43990 0 0 Stefanie Hamilton EI Teacher of the Visually Impaired 5 0 X X 1172 0 0 Susan Raymond Board member 1 0 X 0 0 0 110162 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 110927 115399 0 226326 Program services 900099 226881 226881 0 0 0 0 0 0 226881 537 0 0 537 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 453744 226881 0 537 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 110162 110162 0 0 0 0 0 0 179668 179668 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 27977 27977 0 0 0 0 0 0 108 0 108 0 3019 0 3019 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3213 0 0 3213 5649 5251 398 0 11991 9051 1558 1382 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 28251 28247 4 0 0 0 0 0 2825 2747 278 -200 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 12314 9622 2692 0 0 0 0 0 385177 372725 8057 4395 76754 147210 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 76754 147210 6110 7999 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6110 7999 X 0 0 0 0 70644 139211 70644 139211 76754 147210 68567 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 306665 316575 349984 295520 453207 1721951 306665 316575 349984 295520 453207 1721951 1721951 1721951 1 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b Form 990 is reviewed with the Board members for their review and approval before being filed.
