The Governor’s proposed budget for the State’s next two fiscal years (starting July 1, 2013) includes significant funding cuts for Maine’s Division for the Blind and Visually Impaired (DBVI). These proposed cuts eliminate one Teacher of the Visually Impaired and one Vision Rehabilitation Therapist position. For more information, see the letter to the members of the Appropriations and L.C.R.E.D. Committees and consider attending the Public Hearing on this part of the proposed state budget at 1:00 pm on Thursday, March 21, 2013, in Room 228 of the Statehouse in Augusta.
