We will learn basic Intervener skills and talk about the importance of an Intervener and the impact we have in the lives of those we serve and the true meaning of an intervener. We will talk about the difference in working with children vs adults . I will share personal success stories of different individuals I have had the privilege of working with . We will also touch on ADA laws and rights as it is an important thing to know in this population as many times you may need to step in and become the advocate.<\/p>\n<p>Please email me at MandyLou2008@gmail.com for more information .<\/p>\n<p>Thanks<br \/>\nMandy Picard<\/p>\n<p>CONTACT PERSON NAME: Mandy Picard<br \/>\nCONTACT EMAIL ADDRESS: MandyLou2008@gmail.com<br \/>\nCONTACT TELEPHONE #: (832)585-6975<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Workshop- History of Deaf-Blindness and the role of an Intervener DATE: July 26th &amp; July 27th 2013 TIME: 3pm to 7pm &amp; 9am to 1pm ADDRESS: 9100 Southwest Freeway suite 200 Houston, Texas 77074 Flyer Page 1 and Page 2&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/deafnetwork.com\/wordpress\/blog\/2013\/07\/03\/history-of-deaf-blindness-and-the-role-of-an-intervener-houston\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[2],"tags":[114,600,68,19199,494,20,18645,19198,132,17,43],"class_list":["post-23694","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-deaf-news","tag-ada","tag-advocacy","tag-deaf-blind","tag-deaf-blindness","tag-deafblind","tag-houston","tag-intervener","tag-mandy-picard","tag-technology","tag-texas","tag-workshop"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p752R-6aa","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":24006,"url":"https:\/\/deafnetwork.com\/wordpress\/blog\/2013\/07\/25\/postponed-history-of-deaf-blindness-and-the-role-of-an-intervener-houston\/","url_meta":{"origin":23694,"position":0},"title":"POSTPONED: History of Deaf-Blindness and the role of an Intervener &#8211; Houston","author":"Grant Laird Jr","date":"July 25, 2013","format":false,"excerpt":"POSTPONED: History of Deaf-Blindness and the role of an Intervener - Houston Hello All !\u00a0 I am wanting to inform you that the workshop date has been moved from Friday and Saturday July 26-27, 2013 to September 28th.
