The Perkins School for the Blind’s Early Connections Conference is a two-day event in May for families, educators, and medical professionals of young children with vision loss, deafblindness, and blindness to come together and find resources, support, community, and expert guidance. Two of the people who organize the event, Rachel Bennett and Amy Ferreira, invited me over to the Perkins campus to share the history of the conference and why it exists, stories that show the impact of turning isolation into community, and details of this year's conference.
