Supporting Students with Vision Loss, Wherever Schools Need Help

Pursuing Innovation partners with school districts, families, and agencies to provide specialized support for children and youth with visual impairments – from birth through age 21.

With a nationwide shortage of qualified professionals, schools need reliable, experienced resources they can trust. Through flexible virtual services and select in-person support, we help districts meet student needs, remain compliant, and build stronger outcomes for learners with vision loss.

Most district services are delivered virtually and remotely, allowing schools across the U.S. to access consistent, high-quality support—no matter their location.

Ms. Katy has been the most friendly, professional, and collaborative assistive technology specialist I've had the pleasure to work with in 15 years of teaching. I appreciate her willingness to try new things, focus on student centered activities, and strive for efficiency with her clients. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking guidance in activating new skills for accessibility whether it be keyboard shortcuts, typing skills or high tech devices – she would be an asset to any team. 

Patience R., Tennessee, Teacher of the Visually Impaired
Katy Frets worked with my daughter for over a year, and we had an excellent experience with her services. She is incredibly knowledgeable about assistive technology and always took the time to make sure recommendations were appropriate for my daughter's age, grade level, and future needs.
One thing that stood out most was how collaborative she was. She regularly communicated with the classroom teacher, TVI, and other staff to make lessons meaningful and accessible for my daughter. She also took time to truly get to know my daughter and incorporate her interests into instruction, which made sessions engaging and motivating.
As a parent, I always felt supported by Katy. She was patient, responsive, and always willing to answer questions or help me better understand how to support my daughter at home and at school. Her expertise and guidance during IEP meetings were invaluable.
I would highly recommend Katy to any family or school team looking for thoughtful, collaborative, and highly skilled assistive technology support.
