The final segment of the workshops was devoted to a discussion as to how other disciplines could be utilized in terms of helping in the assessment, treatment and educa tion of visually impaired children. Particular mention was made of the potential contributions of occupational and phy sicel therapists who rarely see themselves as having important skills to offer to people who are blind. Note was made as to how occupational therapists are skilled in terms of modi fying or adapting equipment. Similarly it was pointed out how physical therapists might be utilized in helping to correct the gait, posture and mobility problems frequently encountered with students who are congenitally blind. Other illustrations were offered as to how the resources of a community could be utilized to mobilize its talents to insure the effective delivery of educational services to visually impaired students.
