Hi, Barbara. Unfortunately, the training center was shut down, falling under the weight of its director's incompetency. The center had the potential to do so much good, but the people in charge used it as a way to scam the government and get funds they weren't using to help people. The final straw came when during one month an employee raped a student and another student had a life-threatening medical emergency while the staff member in charge could not hear and was unable to read lips to communicate. In both cases, blind students had to leave the campus to get help for the people involved. This brought the police in to investigate and resulted in the closure of the center. I would have been much happier to see the director arrested and the center opened again under new management.
