Great work Marcus. Though not deaf/blind myself, please let me know if I can

> 2.  Ensure all eligible people are aware of and have applied
>     for equipment under the iCanConnect program
> 3.  At all times, respect privacy
> 4.  Help people with deaf-blind concerns communicate with
>     each other
> 5.  Encourage membership in the N.F.B.
> 6.  If so indicated, encourage a deaf-blind committee in each
>     state.
> 7.  Ensure interested deaf-blind citizens understand the resources
>     available to them.  They may need guidance in working with the
>     agencies responsible to provide their services.
