 The Transformative Power of Peer Support
It doesn’t really change a thing, but knowing you’re not alone somehow helps. Janet, one of LEAP’s low-vision consumers, experienced this truth when she met Melissa Hernandez, one of LEAP’s independent living specialists. Janet has Usher syndrome, a condition that involves hearing loss or deafness and progressive vision loss caused by retinitis pigmentosa (RT), an eye disease. Hernandez has RT and is blind.
 The Courage to Succeed
Charmaine is one of those lucky people who discovered her calling early on. “I knew I was going to be an artist when I was a young child making mud pies,” she said. Charmaine is also lucky enough to know how to ask for help when she needs it. That’s how she ended up earning her degree at the Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA) and, later, working with LEAP to create a vision for her business that’s as clear as her artistic vision.
