LAUREN LIEBERMAN

• Lauren has a PhD and teaches in the kinesiology department.
  • Her work focuses on kids who are visually impaired and those who are deaf and blind.
  • She teaches adaptive physical education at SUNY Brockport.
• She pursued her doctorate because she felt that she could reach more people with that degree.
• And in teaching, she founded Camp Abilities.
  • This has helped her, her students, and the countless kids who have taken part.

CAMP ABILITIES

• Lauren began a program to expose her students to those with visual impairments and in turn, give visually impaired kids programs that suited them.
• Her program, Camp Abilities, is worldwide now.
  • She received a Fulbright to pursue this internationally.
  • Camp Abilities is an educational sports camp for children with visual impairments.
• Part of what Lauren hopes to teach these kids is they can make a career out of what they are passionate about.
• Over the first few years, she was in the red and the university fronted the cost.
  • But she wanted to make sure the camp was accessible and not cost-prohibitive.
    • She applies to and receives many grants which helps.
• Grant programs and donors make all the difference. Consider donating your money or time, if you can!
• Vinnie will be volunteering with this camp next summer.
