Mission and Program Overview
Mission
METAS is an organization that aims to spread training on blindness skills in Mexico though a lens of structured discovery and cultural sensitivity. We provide the expertise to teachers and professionals working with blind adults and children so that local professionals can continue to foster a positive atmosphere. We use research based practices in working with the blind and professionals in the field. METAS is a non profit organization working in Mexico to build a community of inclusion around blind and low vision students. Currently 60% of blind and low vision students in Mexico do not have access to any type of education. We hope to close that gap by working with educators and giving them the tools necessary to provide high quality instruction. With your help we can reach our goals of education for the blind in Mexico.

| We ran a 3 day conference around blindness in Guadalajara, Mexico called Cambiando Vidas GDL. We had over 300 participants that included educators, teachers, parents of blind children, blind adults and blind children. We held over 40 workshops on topics related to blindness. This included lessons on daily living skills, orientation and mobility, how to be an advocate, school improvement and much more. We provided the whole seminar free of charge to participants. We also provided breakfast and lunch and free childcare. The conference was a great event where we were able to spread our teachings and exchange ideas. | $23,067 | $23,067 |
