  These functional video resources were created to demonstrate various tactual techniques, adaptive equipment and modifications that can be used to provide access for people who are DeafBlind and therefore increase independence in one’s home. Maricar Marquez, the supervisor of the Independent Living Department at HKNC, who is DeafBlind herself, and other DeafBlind professionals walk the learner through the steps and modifications needed to perform everyday tasks such as: making an omelet, boiling water, cleaning the home and accessing alerting systems. Stay tuned for additional resources. For specific questions regarding the techniques and/or tools used in these videos please contact Maricar at mmarquez@helenkeller.org.
