Dr. Jan van Dijk is a nationally-renowned presenter in the field of DeafBlindness, pioneering the assessment and teaching processes for children with dual sensory loss and other disabilities. Since 1958, the "Grandfather of DeafBlindness" and "Father of Coactive Movement Strategies" has been helping families and professionals to better understand and serve children with complex needs, autism and behavior disorders through child-guided assessments, anticipation cues for communication and calendar systems. For his extensive international work and innovative approach, he has received both the Anne Sullivan and Deaf Blind Internationals Distinguished Service Awards and was knighted by the Queen of the Netherlands.
