Minnesota READ Act Webinars

The Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard of Hearing Working Group created a webinar to provide an overview of the Minnesota READ Act Report for students who are Deaf, Hard of Hearing, or DeafBlind. We share the collaborative work that led to this report, highlight key findings and recommendations, and discuss considerations for supporting literacy development for our students who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing, as well as basic considerations for students who are DeafBlind across Minnesota. 

There are more videos planned for the future so stay tuned!
