- Introduced -

SB 702 - This act creates the "Older Visually Impaired Missourians Fund" to be used for services to those who have experienced irreversible vision loss. A new Section 209.343 is created for the Fund, which will be administered by Rehabilitation Services for the Blind. Subject to availability of funds, the Department of Social Services must develop a program to provide specific services, such as screening, treatment, training, and public education. The Department may contract for such services and may make rules for the program.
