Description

This capstone project focused on the development and dissemination of educational video series designed to increase awareness and understanding of CVI among parents, caregivers, and professionals. The project aimed to improve knowledge of CVI, support caregiver confidence in advocacy, and highlight the importance of coordinated care for children with CVI. Overall, the results of this project indicate that the video series was effective in increasing participant-reported understanding of CVI, confidence in supporting children, and awareness of available resources and interdisciplinary coordination. These findings support the use of accessible, video-based educational resources as a valuable tool for caregivers of CVI, and serve to reinforce the role of OT in providing education, supporting advocacy, and promoting participation for children with CVI.
