DeafBlind Access of the South Needs YOU!


Seeking Support Service Providers for a 5-Day Retreat!

Are you passionate about making a difference? Do you know ASL? We are looking for dedicated Support Service Providers (SSPs) and Co-Navigators to assist participants at our upcoming 5-day retreat.

SSPs play a vital role in facilitating accessibility and independence for participants who are DeafBlind. As an SSP, you will:
✅ Provide sighted guidance and environmental descriptions
✅ Facilitate communication between participants and others
✅ Assist with navigation during activities and meals
✅ Support independence while respecting personal autonomy

Event Details:
