The MayRoseLili Foundation is a not-for-profit charitable organization dedicated to establishing a center that will provide early intervention/education to blind and visually impaired infants, toddlers and preschoolers throughout the state of Nevada without discrimination to race, national or ethnic origin, sex or religious preference. It is our hope to create a staff of highly trained vision specialists, therapists and teachers to strive to foster the full potential of children who are blind by providing exemplary education, therapy and family support services.

The mission of MayRoseLili Foundation is to teach visually impaired infants, young children and their families, providing hope and a nurturing environment where children reach their highest potential. This will include infants who are legally blind, and who have cortical visual impairment.

Early intervention enhances the families' ability to support their children's well being, capacity for learning and full participation in their communities. We hope to provide a specialized staff that will assist children with visual impairments in developing emotional security, social competence and intellectual skills needed to build on their natural talents and ability to succeed in school.

Goals
1.  To provide educational and therapeutic services of the highest quality to children from birth to age five (whose vision is their primary obstacle to learning) without discrimination to race, national or ethnic origin, sex or religious preference;

2.  To provide information and support to families for the purpose of: (a) increasing parents appreciation and respect for their child's unique potential; and (b) by empowering families to advocate for their child;

3.  To provide a setting that encourages children's independent functioning and ability to interact with their families, peers, and others in th world around them; and

4.  To collaborate with schools, community agencies and others in order to enable children who are blind to successfully transition into other educational settings and develop optimally.

The MayRoseLili Foundation has been created to establish a center that will provide a Transdisciplinary Play Based Assessment - a child is evaluated by a full team of specialists: vision teachers, a speech/language pathologist, an occupational therapist, a physical therapist and developmental psychologist. Complete reports will be written for parents, physicians and case worker/school districts regarding each area observed.
