Mission

The Florida Outreach Project (FOP) is committed to promoting the full inclusion and participation of persons with deaf-blindness as active members of their communities. FOP strives to build the capacity of families, schools, districts, and teams by providing training and disseminating information on sensory loss, multiple disabilities,
and best practices.

FOP supports individuals, families, teams, and communities affected by deaf-blindness. FOP engages in collaboration and consultation with key stakeholders.
Guidelines on Service Provision.

Philosophy

We believe that:

  • There is no single profile of a student who is deaf-blind
  • Students who are deaf-blind can participate in every activity
  • Students who are deaf-blind communicate in a variety of ways
  • Many people who are deaf-blind can get around their communities independently
  • Students who are deaf-blind can be included in every teaching environment
  • Educational teams are critical
  • Families are key players on those teams

Ideas that WorkFunded by the US Dept of Education, Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.
