Description of CE Program/Activity
 Join OMSA for a continuing education opportunity! On February 8, 2024 from 7:00-8:30 PM EST, OMSA welcomes guest speaker Monica Godfrey-Lehrer to share their presentation, "O&M in the DeafBlind World." Please see the presentation description from Monica, below:Rarely do O&M professionals work with individuals with a combined hearing and vision loss. At HKNC in NY that is our sole customer and through my years of experience at HKNC I've learned that communication is the most paramount consideration when working with this extraordinary population. During this presentation you will learn about the simple accommodations to the O&M curriculum that will assist DeafBlind individuals to navigate more fluidly and also what communication considerations you and your student need to have in place to be successful.
