Deaf-blindness means concomitant hearing and visual impairments, the combination of which causes such severe communication and other developmental and educational needs that they cannot be accommodated in special education programs solely for children with deafness or children with blindness.
Helen Keller Deaf-Blind Awareness Week was June 21st to June 27th, 2020. The theme was DEAF-BLIND. AND THRIVING.
The essence of the message is that of all the obstacles people who are deaf-blind overcome, misconceptions don’t have to be one of them. Not only do people who are deaf-blind thrive in the workplace, they make their workplaces thrive too. Companies with people who are deaf-blind experience an increase in productivity, a boost in company morale, and are nearly twice as likely to be innovative. So forget everything you think you know about people who are deaf-blind and experience their positive impact for yourself.Page updated
