| | Series: | | | Author: | Blashaski, Lynn; Sligar, Steven R. | | Publication Date: | 2004 | | Abstract: | This project was designed to improve services for persons who are deafblind and live in rural areas. An individual was considered deafblind when s/he hears only limited speech and often has difficulty understanding what others say in combination with a corrected visual acuity poorer than 20/70 in the better eye or restricted visual field of 20 degrees or less in the better eye. To provide the necessary, and oftentimes very specialized, services individuals who are deafblind require is a challenge for many agencies located in rural areas. As a result, many individuals fall through the cracks and are underserved
or not served at all. The purpose of this project was to provide services and to produce a manual or blueprint for agencies to develop services in their local areas. Link by Link can be used, replicated and disseminated to expand the availability of services for the growing population of persons who are deafblind. Users are encouraged to fill in the blanks that are unique to their respective service area. | | Publisher: | Center for Sight & Hearing a CARF Accredited Organization, Midwest Center for Postsecondary Outreach, Helen Keller National Center for Deaf Blind Youths and Adults, Lions of Illinois Region 1D | | Pages: | 32 | | Format: | PDF | | Target Age: | Post-Secondary School | | Intended Audience: | Educators Families | | HTML Version: | | | PDF Version: | http://pdcorder.pepnet.org/media/1180LinkByLink.pdf |
