Meet Scout. Scout is a guide dog who will help you retrieve valuable information and resources as the mascot of a new interactive website presented by Perkins Training & Educational Resources Program.

When you visit Perkins Scout, you will find an extensive searchable database of online resources covering all topics related to blindness and visual impairment – general information on blindness, help for families with relatives who are visually impaired, resources for educators and professionals, and much more.

Do you have a teachable experience or something to share with others that may help give insight into common issues? Visitors are encouraged to submit their own stories and add to the Perkins Scout knowlegebase. Look for our "Submit Your Story" feature. With your help, our goal is to make Perkins Scout a centralized hub providing the most reliable and authoritative information about all aspects of living with blindness and visual impairments.

All of the resources in Scout have been reviewed by Perkins experts and organized for your convenience. We hope you enjoy exploring Perkins Scout and we look forward to hearing from you!
