The VIPS Family Retreat is for You!
Join us for the VIPS Family Retreat & Conference on November 1-2, 2024 in Louisville, Kentucky for a special weekend filled with learning, connectivity, and fun! This is a great opportunity to meet other VIPS families from Kentucky and Indiana, learn during the conference, and relax by knowing your VIPS child (and siblings) are with our trained VIPS teachers, staff, and volunteers. We have a lot planned for you, your VIPS child, and your family so we hope to see you this November!

The Family Conference for caregivers will be at Sullivan University's Gardiner Point Residence Hall. You'll hear from expert speakers, other parents of kids who are blind or have low vision, VIPS teachers, and others on various topics we hope are helpful. VIPS children (birth - 5) and siblings (up to age 10) will be less than a mile away at VIPS Kids Town Preschool for Kids Camp where they will play, make crafts, explore, and have fun. Meals and snacks are provided for children and caregivers.
