Sure!

 

Delcenia who is the contact person is handling the details. She is deafblind.

 

I will reach out to her.

Suzanne: Yes, I know that you and the other leadership know about Bruce and Brian, but if NFB Ohio has a deaf blind member able to speak to them to provide information about how deaf blind accessibility works  and to provide encouragement that they will be able to participate fully  in the convention, I know they would appreciate that. 

We who are not deaf can give them some information and tell them not to worry about anything, but being able to speak to a deaf blind person would be more beneficial to them.

Is there anyone who is deaf blind who they can speak to?

Hi. I know two deaf blind people who will be attending the State convention for the very first time. They are both registered for the convention and our NFB Ohio Leadership is aware that they are coming. |They are brothers. 

If you are a deaf blind person who has attended a previous State convention and you know the ropes of accessibility for deaf blind convention attendees, would you be willing and able to talk over the phone with them to share information about the accessibility technology that will be available, how to get it when they arrive, and how to meet people and fully participate in the convention?

If you can help with this, please contact me at phone 216-691-1619 or send me an email to cherylfischer05 at icloud.com <mailto:cherylfischer05 at icloud.com> .

Thanks,

Cheryl
