Council for Pediatric Vision Assembled to Guide Conexus Programs

Conexus is excited to announce that our Council for Pediatric Vision had its first meeting this morning at our headquarters. The Council’s expertise will prove invaluable as they review and recommend protocols and policies relating to our public health and community program activities.  We are so appreciative of the commitment the members of the Council have made to the organization, our programs, and the children we serve, and we look forward to seeing the ongoing results of the Council’s hard work!
