Family Support

The VDBP is committed to empowering families & DeafBlind students and supporting futures!

The Virginia Deafblind Project aims to increase connections, awareness, access to resources, skill development and collaborations with families. Families and students are integral members of the educational team and we believe that the inclusion of families and students in activities and programs is necessary to partner effectively with educational teams and service providers. It is important for them to understand the various types of educational and transition services that can be provided and how they function. The Virginia Deafblind Project can provide families with knowledge and skills to increase their involvement in education and transition opportunities. 

Family Resources 

Navigating the vast array of resources can be overwhelming and this list is not exhaustive. Know that we can assist with understanding and navigating these complex systems.
