Technical Assistance to Service Providers for Deaf-Blind Children & Youth in Delaware. Final Report for Funding under Services for Deaf-Blind Children and Youth.
Delaware State Dept. of Public Instruction, Dover.
This final report describes activities and accomplishments of a federally funded 3-year project in Delaware to improve programming and instructional/vocational opportunities available to students with deaf-blindness. The project expanded the capacity of the state-funded program for the deaf-blind to provide technical assistance and training for direct service providers (i.e., professional and paraprofessional staff and parents). A chart details specific accomplishments, outcomes, and impact in the areas of workshops/inservice trainings, technical assistance, needs assessment, family activities, and interagency collaboration. Overall, the project provided 141 home interventions in the form of training or consultation, 150 staff training sessions, 22 assessments/evaluations, 66 liaison incidents, 123 team meetings, and 21 interagency team meetings. The report has sections providing information on the project's purpose and objectives, underlying basis and factors related to service delivery, accomplishments, outcomes, impact, and evaluation. Appendices include evaluation results, surveys used by the project, cooperative interagency team information, and information on the summer institute planning and referral/service coordination. (DB)
