  • Accommodations Needed to Access Sign Language

    Collapse all Expand all

    People who are DeafBlind use different methods to communicate including sign language, speech, text and ProTactile language. Once you identify the person’s preferred method of communication you must identify the necessary accommodations to access that method of communication.

    Each DeafBlind person is unique.  One must check in with the individual to determine what accommodations they require to access their preferred mode of communication.

    For more information, please go to the HKNC Learning Center where you can find several courses and resources on communication methods used by individuals who are DeafBlind and so much more.
