5/11/16 How do you solve the little things in life after significant 
vision loss occurs?  Moderator, Jan bailey,  Minnesota



My name is Jan Bailey and I was a rehabilitation counselor for 31 
years at State Services for the Blind.   I have a Master's Degree in 
rehabilitation counseling from Utah State University.



I have been blind all of my life. Six years ago I became a contract 
vendor for the state of MN and started my own business JB 
Rehabilitation Enterprises.

I teach classes to seniors to help them adjust to their vision loss, 
I teach Braille, daily living and cooking skills to blind teens and 
adults, I'm chair of the board of the MN State academies for the 
Blind and Deaf, am president of my local National Federation of the 
Blind chapter, and am also a member of the state board of NFB of MN.



I'm a member of the Lions Club, and do a lot of volunteer work for my church.
