Preserve Vision Florida (formerly Prevent Blindness Florida) is a statewide non-profit, 501(c)(3) agency established in 1957. Our mission is your vision. Over the years, we have promoted eye health and safety through public awareness campaigns, screened hundreds of thousands of children and adults, and directly assisted tens of thousands with medical exams and glasses. This work is vitally important because fifty percent of all blindness is preventable. Our mission is to promote healthy vision through: Vision health awareness and education for all ages Vision screenings for children and adults Assistance to obtain medical eye care Advocacy for vision and medical eye care health services The ability to see well can provide an individual with hope. Linking a person with vision impairment to care can change one’s life. The hope offered can be the ability to read, to perform daily tasks, to have gainful employment and drive, and see the face of loved ones. Loss of vision also has a profound impact on our economy and the financial security of families. “At a cost of $139 billion in 2013, eye disorders and vision loss are among the costliest health conditions currently facing the United States” according to Prevent Blindness America. Key facts about children’s vision: 1 in 4 children enters school with vision loss 12 million children nationwide need vision correction Amblyopia (lazy eye) and strabismus (crossed eyes) can cause blindness if untreated by age 10 80% of children labelled as “learning disabled” have been found to have a vision problem Key vision issues for adult vision: Approximately 75% of U.S. adult `population uses some type of vision correction Adult vision health issues: Macular Degeneration – blurred or no vision in Cataracts – lens of the eye becomes center of vision field increasingly cloudy Diabetic retinopathy – damage to blood vessels due to diabetes Glaucoma – increased pressure in eye causing gradual loss of sight Preserve Vision Florida answers these threats by providing vision services to some of our most vulnerable populations. We are the only organization that provides vision screenings, vision education, prescription glasses, and vision treatment. Currently, we serve the marginalized population of six counties primarily: Hillsborough, Pinellas, Manatee, Orange, Polk, and Sarasota Counties. This year, 62% of the individuals we have screened have needed medical examinations and many also received glasses; among the homeless, 82% have been referred for medical attention and glasses.

Glaciers are our most visible evidence of climatic changes, and they often remind me of our collective vulnerability on this blue blue planet.” Jackson’s doctoral research at the University of Oregon centers on understanding how glaciers matter to people on the south coast of Iceland, and what it is that humanity stands to lose as the planet’s glaciers disappear. “It is critical that we understand how today’s rapidly changing glaciated environments impact surrounding communities, which requires extensive, long-term fieldwork in remote places. I am grateful that Fulbright has continually supported me in this work, from my first Fulbright grant in Turkey, where I taught at Ondokuz Mayis University and researched glaciers and people in the Kaçkar Mountains, to my current research in Iceland. Without Fulbright, I would not be able to do Photo by Eli Weiss this research.” (Photo by Eric Kruszewski) 16-22186 FFSB-report-2015_PRINTcover.indd 3 09/09/2016 7:45 AM (From left) U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Educational and Cultural Affairs Evan Ryan, National Science Foundation Arctic Science Section Head Eric Saltzman, Iceland Fulbright Commission Executive Director Belin- da Theriault, and Iceland‘s Ambassa- dor to the United States Geir Haarde at the signing of the Fulbright-Nation- al Science Foundation agreement on January 21, 2015, for a groundbreak- ing partnership to fund grants for U.S.

Our co-sponsors, along with the many local host agencies and organizations in the Tampa area, have teamed up with my staff for what I think you will find to be both an educational and enjoyable week. We are encouraged that each year we join with new allies and partners in our fight against crime and violence in our communities. In 2005 the conference will mark a milestone, the celebration of its 20th consecutive year. As those of you who have joined us on this journey well know, it has taken hard work, though it has been a labor of love, in order for this conference to become a unique and respected national crime prevention annual event. Thank you for your continued commitment, support, and resources to these vital prevention efforts. As Florida’s Attorney General, I am both pleased and honored to sponsor this important initiative. Sincerely, Charlie Crist 20th National Conference on Preventing Crime in the Black Community 1 Departjment of Law State of Georgia THURBERT E.
