A little about us

The PPDB exists to provide support for individuals with deafblindness and their families through a family-driven network. We support our members as they deal with the daily issues of life, such as:

  • Relationships with family and friends
  • Healthcare
  • Education
  • Employment
  • Insurance
  • Service providers
  • Life transitions
Our goals

  • Establish & maintain a network to identify & help connect families with similar needs.
  • Develop & disseminate accurate, timely information & share resources.
  • Collaborate with other organizations & groups to ensure that the needs & concerns of persons who are deafblind are addressed.
  • Educate policymakers on issues involving the deafblind.

Why Join

The Partnership is a family-led organization — its members set its priorities, mold its agenda to serve their needs, and represent other families when discussing important deafblind issues.  There is always strength in numbers.
