MARIETTA - Starting in early June at the Charles D. Switzer Library in downtown Marietta, Vision To Learn mobile clinics will return to Cobb County public libraries to provide eye exams and glasses – free of charge – for children.
Summertime 2022 Vision To Learn visits at Switzer Library are scheduled for June 6, June 7 and June 8, 9:30 am to 3:30 pm each day. Registration is required and space is limited.
The Switzer Library Vision To Learn visits will be the fifth summer break the national nonprofit has staged clinics at Cobb libraries for children ages 5-18. School systems across metro Atlanta – and “from Honolulu to Baltimore” – have partnered with Vision To Learn, including Marietta City Schools. Vision To Learn’s Georgia team was launched in 2017.
The 2022 summer break mobile clinic visits will operate under health and safety protocols of Vision To Learn and Cobb County.
The summertime Vision To Learn events are part of the Cobb County Public Library’s collaboration with Learn4Life, Metro Atlanta Regional Education Partnership to make the region a more equitable and prosperous community.
