Home	The Alaska Blind Child Discovery relies on volunteers who take vision screening technology to urban, rural and bush children. Julie Smith was one of the very best. Julie was a specialist at low vision children with the VISIT program at SESA. She traveled state-wide to help Alaskan children with Low Vision adapt and prepare for education and life. From the Earliest days of ABCD, Julie and her colleague Andrea Story, took photoscreening statewide. From Barrow to Kodiak; from Adak to Ketchkan, Julie performed outstanding photoscreening with excellent follow up for parents and children alike. When Polaroid film for the original ABCD MTI cameras became scarce, Julie specialized in JVC photoscreening and documentation of strabismus and nystagmus from remote locations.
