Hello AER Division 2, 7, 9, 10, & 11 List Serv Members!

Do you want to make a difference in the professional quality of life of 
Blindness and Low Vision Service Providers?  Are you:

- 18-70 years of age? 
- a Low Vision Therapist, Orientation & Mobility Specialist, Rehabilitation 
Counselor with a blind caseload, Teacher of Children with Visual Impairments, 
or a Vision Rehabilitation Therapist?
- Currently employed a minimum of 20 hrs/week?

If so, we need your help! 

If you meet the guidelines above, you are cordially invited to participate in a 
research project entitled "Burnout, Compassion Fatigue, and Compassion 
Satisfaction among Blindness and Low Vision Service Providers".  The study is 
being conducted by Jennipher Wiebold, Ph.D., CRC from Western Michigan 
University, Department of Blindness and Low Vision Studies and Penny 
Willmering, Ph.D., CRC, LPC from Arkansas Tech University. 

The anonymous survey is comprised of demographic information, 30 Likert scale 
questions, and two short answer items.  The survey will take approximately 
20-25 minutes to complete.  Your replies will be completely anonymous, no 
identifying information is collected.  

Participation in the research study may not directly benefit you. However, this 
study may enhance the research base in the field of Blindness and Low Vision 
Studies through providing knowledge regarding burnout, compassion fatigue, and 
compassion satisfaction in the profession.  It is hoped that results can be 
used to improve the professional quality of life for service providers.
