February 20: A Collaborative Approach to Environmental Modfiications for Vision and Hearing

Session Description

In this session, we will move beyond single-focus solutions by analyzing the distinct and often overlapping environmental challenges faced by individuals with vision loss and those who are deaf or hard of hearing. We will showcase successful inter-agency collaboration that delivers comprehensive assistive technology (AT) solutions. Participants will leave with practical knowledge of AT tools and strategies that effectively address home and community modifications for individuals who would otherwise feel isolated in their vision and/or hearing barriers.

Presenters: Jennifer D’Alessandro, Education Consultant, Wyoming Department of Vision Outreach | Dominique Maestas, Equipment Distribution Specialist, Wyoming Relay
