Interveners need specialized skills related to deafblind education in order to provide one-on-one instructional support to students who are deafblind. They need appropriate supervision and support from the IEP team. To help meet the needs of interveners in Texas, the Texas DeafblindProject at Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired is pleased to announce the 2023 Introduction to the Intervener Team Model.
This workshop provides information for the intervener and the team on:
• Experiencing the World of Being Deafblind.
• Impact & Implications of Being Deafblind.
• Intervener Competencies & Training Updates.
• Intervener and Team Roles & Responsibilities.
• The Five Components of Quality Intervention.
• Intervention Issues & Considerations.
• Identification of Tools and Strategies to Support the Student Profile.

Important Session Information:
Each intervener should attend this training with a professional member of the educational team (ideally the classroom teacher, but this could also be a teacher for the deaf and hard of hearing or teacher for students with visual impairments or another professional regularly involved with the deafblind student). Family members (parents or guardians) of the student are welcomed to attend, as well.
