In recognition of the achievements of people who are deaf-blind, we are celebrating Helen Keller Deaf-Blind Awareness Week during the last week of June.

Saturday, June 29, 2019 - 9:00am to 3:00pm
This 6-hour FREE workshop will cover the basic requirements and training needed to be an effective SSP, and will cover medical causes of deafblindness, the practice of SSP, and communication with deafblind individuals.
