Families play the most important role in their child’s life and naturally take on the role of leader as they navigate the complex systems that support them. Families will have the opportunity to learn more about how they can be empowered to effectively engage and be a voice for their family – at home, in their IEP team, and in their community through sharing their story. You will hear the powerful story of one family and hear about many resources to support families of children wo are deafblind, blind or low vision.
