Hi Randy: I hope you're doing well and AADB is growing stronger under your leadership. I wish you all the best always. Just a gentle reminder my friend that many many Deaf - Blind are hard of hearing (non sign speaking) blind folks. Randy, indeed since getting the two C.I.'s I'm guilty of using voice, Assisted listening devices and voice interpreters as opposed to using my signing, using interpreters, etc. I have switched to English. My excuses has been that my vision is going "bye bye" and depending on tactile scares me. In time, that may be my only option but for now I'm surrounded by hearing family and friends so I've gotten into a "comfort zone" with the success of my C.I.'s. What I'm trying to say here is, remember that, just because you might not observe the folks signing doesn't mean they're not Deaf-blind.
All the folks in the NFB Deaf-Blind division who are promoting ICC are Deaf-Blind. In fact, every one assigned to Operation Outreach (our outreach project to raise awareness of the ICC and the Deaf-Blind community requesting ALL 50 affiliates and the D.C. affiliate to form committees for the Deaf-Blind in their individual committee) - including our mutual friend Marsha drenth are Deaf-Blind.
Speaking of, hey Scott if you want to help please contact me or Joe Naulty. We could always use more helping hands. We got two projects going on at the moment and probably will start a third. You know about Operation Outreach. We've also started a committee on SSP issues. If you want to help us, we can always use another helping hand. I do believe the Deaf-Blind division is working harder than it ever has before. I dare to say that we've accomplished more in the last few months than we have in many years. The latest announcement we heard was that Scott Labarre (affiliate President of Colorado and a National NFB Board Member) has agreed to set up a Deaf-Blind Issues committee in the Colorado affiliate. We also heard that the President of the Alaska affiliate is Deaf-Blind. So climb abaord the NFB DB Express and lets get chugging along on this exciting adventure raising awareness of Deaf-Blind issues, ICC, and the need for SSP's.
All are welcome aboard.
Best Wishes,
Tracie Inman
NFB Deaf-Blind Division
First Vice President
