A twist
I went to the DeafBlind retreat this weekend and it was a great experience! It got me thinking about the state of education in Kentucky, especially for Deaf, Blind, or DeafBlind consumers. Sadly, it seemed that some of the participants at the retreat had had little access to assistive technology or education, being from the more isolated parts of Kentucky. I know we have discussed various methods of communication/education for Deaf students, but I would be interested to learn different methods for teaching blind/DeafBlind students as well. Interesting stuff!

I agree! A lot of the times when I am searching information on the deaf community it comes up with deaf/blind individuals as well. I'm not sure if the two conditions are common together, but I would also like to learn about deaf individuals who have other disabilities or conditions along with their deafness!
