A Process for Identifying Students Who May Be At-Risk for Deafblindness

Abstract: An announcment of a new manual to guide the process of identifying students with deafblindness.

Keywords: deafblind, census, assessment, identification

Region 12 Education Service Center, Deafblind Stakeholder Education Committee, worked together with Texas Deafblind Outreach to develop a process for educational teams, teachers of the deaf and hard of hearing, and teacher of the visually impaired to use in identifying students who would be considered deafblind. This process includes a variety of forms and articles to help guide educators in obtaining appropriate assessment of vision and hearing, appropriate inclusion on the deafblind census, and guidance in determining modification needed by the student who has been identified as deafblind. A downloadable copy of this process and forms is available on the TSBVI website at http://www.tsbvi.edu/Outreach/deafblind/process.htm.
