dedicated to the support, education, and empowerment of families. We
provide consultation through location, development, and dissemination of
information to families regarding identified needs and dreams. The project
collaborates with various community agencies such as Community Mental Health,
Michigan Commission for the Blind, and Michigan Association for Deaf-Blind.
Family/Person centered practices are emphasized. For more information:

We are
available for onsite visitations to provide consultation to the local school
district/agency and/or family. Our services include evaluation of
established goals with program recommendations to meet the unique needs of
students who are DeafBlind. Onsite in-service training may be requested by
local staff/parent groups on topics of concern to the specific district.
An inter-agency model is used to assist in person-centered transition planning.
