Abstract
The three-week summer program for deaf-blind adults had these objectives: to evaluate training potential as well as daily living and mobility skills of the client, to provide instruction in daily living and mobility skills, and to teach staff members to set up training programs for the deaf-blind. Staff and consultants felt that the program succeeded.
