Hi everyone! I have my popcorn ready to watch the movie described below, but I’ve been told that for some reason, the card the deaf-blind person is using to cross the street was switched with the real card that was correctly worded, based on research.
Enjoy!

Subject: Happy Deaf-Blind Awareness Week
Greetings All,
I wanted to take a moment to connect with everyone during Deaf-Blind Awareness Week. In light of all the disconnection, social distancing, and stay-at-home orders we have all endured over the past three months, it is fitting that the HKNC Deaf-Blind Awareness Week theme is centered around connections and thriving in the workplace. Despite all that we have been forced to accept, we are all still thriving. We are making our communities safer, many of us live in states where we helped to "flattened the curve and slow the spread" and our consumers are still thriving because of the services we are providing.
For those of you who are still staying in or close to home, please join us tomorrow evening for an online presentation of the movie Feeling Through. This short film about the chance encounter of a deafblind man and a young man has been a big hit all over the country. Please share the link with your friends and families and encourage them to join the watch party as well.
June 25th at 7pm ET
Virtual Premiere of Feeling Through Experience
In honor of Deaf-Blind Awareness Week join us for an accessible livestream of The Feeling Through Experience on June 25th at 7pm ET. Register now for your FREE ticket at www.feelingthrough.com
