The identification and referral of infants and toddlers who are deaf-blind requires coordination and collaboration at state and national levels. A key responsibility of the National Center on Deaf-Blindness (NCDB) and state deaf-blind projects (SDBPs) is to work with national and state partners and systems to identify and refer children who are deaf-blind as early as possible in order to link families to appropriate services, resources, and support.

In this webinar, ECTA, ITCA and DaSy will join with NCDB to provide an overview of the Deaf-Blind TA Network and the unique opportunities that exist for inter-agency collaboration through training and technical assistance. In concert with NCDB, state deaf-blind projects provide technical assistance to help ensure that family members, early intervention providers, special and general education teachers, and related services personnel have access to the specialized training and tools needed to address the early intervention, educational and related services needs of children who are deaf-blind.

Part C Coordinators are invited to share the registration link with other Part C staff for them to register for this event. Live captions will be avaialable.
