Abstract

Deaf-blindness is among the most severe of all handicaps. Compared with the progress made with other handicapped groups, the education and rehabilitation of deaf-blind children and adults is in some respects still in its infancy. There is a high incidence of additional physical defects among children whose deaf-blindness is due to rubella, and for many, adequate educational and rehabilitation solutions have not yet been found. Additional support services for deaf-blind adults are urged, perhaps requiring new legislation, to foster greater independence and self-fulfillment.
