Resources SHARED FROM 2020 cAMP:
We understand this pandemic has been EXTREMELY hard for everyone. We were hopeful to have Camp, but for everyone's safety we will have to look forward to seeing you next year. Here are resources we had started to gather for Camp and more that we wanted to share during this pandemic:
- QUARANTINE TOOL BOX 7 short videos on Mental Health for Parents and Guardians of Children who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing. They were created by our friends at the Statewide Outreach Center, which is part of the Texas School for the Deaf, as part of the Mental Health Initiative for Deaf Youth.
- TEXAS FAMILIES TOGETHER is a weekly call for families to join that is hosted, in both English and Spanish, by Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired ("TSBVI") Outreach Team.
- FAMILY ENGAGEMENT DURING REMOTE INSTRUCTION OF STUDENTS WITH DEAFBLINDNESS AND MULTIPLE DISABILITES on the "Paths to Literacy" website where you will find many other great nuggets of information.
- GOT TRANSITION?
- ACRONYMS A list built with our TSBVI Deafblind Outreach Affiliate!

"There are people that come into your life for special reasons. Sometimes, we don‘t understand why right away, but I have learned to accept that they are here not to change who you are, but to enhance your life and to teach you."
