Deaf/Blindness

Deaf-Blindness is the full or partial loss of both vision and hearing.  Deaf-Blind individuals require a large range of adaptations when working in an educational setting.  Perhaps the best known deaf-blind person was Helen Keller (1880-1968) who was the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree.  For more information on deaf-blindness you can visit the link below:
