TCDDBHH Livestream Announcement CHANGE

NEW MESSAGE MAY 3, 2024:  The meeting is live on Zoom and will be available for online viewing at a later time.  Zoom link: 84656806390; Passcode:  177058

This vlog is to share some exciting news. The Tennessee Council for the Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard of Hearing has switched from a Zoom platform to a livestream format. The meeting on May 3, 2024, will be our first attempt at livestreaming the meeting through the Department of Human Services YouTube account. A link to the livestream will be posted on the TCDDBHH website, which is https://www.tn.gov/humanservices/ds/councils-and-committees/tcddbhh.html

You can also Google TCDDBHH and it will take you straight to the website.

Livestreaming will allow anyone to access the meeting either as it happens or it can be viewed as a recording after the meeting. Of course, moving to a new format means there will be changes in the way we view the meeting. We anticipate a better viewing experience for those watching. Viewers will be able to see the entire Council sitting around the table rather than only seeing the speaker. But the biggest change is that anyone wanting to make a public comment will have to email Lisa Rimmell at lisa.rimmell@tn.gov BEFORE the meeting to be able to comment. Lisa will send a special link which will allow you to be recognized during the public comments section of the meeting. The livestream format does not allow us to recognize individuals who have not signed up to speak in advance. We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we modernize our Council meetings with the new livestream.  Hope you all can join us either in person at Bridges for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Nashville or via the new livestream on Friday, May 3, 2024, from 9:00am-12:00pm CDT. Everyone is welcome.
