Summary

Students who are deafblind often are paired with an intervener to supply important information about their environment through interaction and communication. Every year, TSBVI Outreach offers an intervener team training on our campus to focus on these important professionals, which we highlighted here. In addition to the training, we spent time in a TSBVI classroom recording conversations from a typical morning with one of our deafblind students.   About the Intervener Team Training: https://www.tsbvi.edu/events/2023-introduction-to-the-intervener-team-model TX Senseabilities Article: https://www.tsbvi.edu/tx-senseabilities/issues/tx-senseabilities-fall-winter-2014-issue/intervener-basics-myth-legend-and-reality
