Join us for a short, engaging webinar in celebration of the 2nd Annual International Day of Deafblindness! This session will cover what Deafblindness is, highlight major historical milestones in Deafblindness history, as well as highlight famous Deafblind individuals and their lasting impact. We’ll also explore the many ways Deafblind people communicate, from tactile methods to technology-supported approaches, and spotlight assistive technology that supports access, connection, and independence.

American Sign Language (ASL) interpreting services and Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) captioning services will be provided. If you need additional accommodations to participate in this webinar, please email the ADA Coordinator at ADAcoordinator@umich.edu.
